Designing Automonous Agents: a Review, February 4, 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Designing Autonomous Agents: Theory and Practice from Biology to Engineering and Back (Paperback)
This book contains a well-chosen sample of what I would like to call some of the "classic" papers in the AI/Robotics research field over the last decade. Maes includes some of the most well-known studies of subsumption architecture, planning, knowledge and goal representation, and behavioral studies. This is a great book for a student of AI/Robotics or just anyone who wants a good basis of understanding in these fields. If you have a robot of your own, this book is an excellent source of detailed descriptions of different architectures developed for organizing robots. While the papers in this book are not on the cutting edge, they provide a good foundation for exploring those that are.
