Norms and normative multiagent systems have become the subjects of interest for many
researchers. Such interest is caused by the need for agents to exploit the norms in …

Multi-agents systems are composed of autonomous and possibly heterogeneous software
agents that act according to their own interests. Some coordination mechanism must be …

Variance in business process execution can be the result of several situations, such as
disconnection between documented models and business operations, workarounds in spite …

We propose a computationally oriented non-monotonic multi-modal logic arising from the
combination of agency, intention and obligation. We argue about the defeasible nature of …

Video-based face recognition (FR) is a challenging task in real-world applications. In still-to-
video FR, probe facial regions of interest (ROIs) are typically captured with lower-quality …

In this paper we show how defeasible logic could formally account for the non-monotonic
properties involved in motivational attitudes like intention and obligation. Usually, normal …

Publisher Summary This chapter describes the use of modal logic techniques to describe
mental attitudes of intelligent systems. Modal logic plays an important role in the field of …

Currently, research in normative multi-agent systems focus on how a visitor or new agent
detects and updates its host norms autonomously without being explicitly given by the host …

The original BOID [5] is a cognitive architecture that unifies Belief, Obligation, Intention and
Desire rules to calculate which actions should an agent undertake next. In the current paper …

In this article we discuss how cognitive attitudes like beliefs, obligations, intentions, and
desires can be represented as components with input/output functionality. We study how to …
