However, the posed problem is challenging as also demonstrated by the somewhat weak results in 2017. The domain requires temporal reasoning and dealing with uncertainty. We propose a novel planning system based on Answer Set Programming and the Clingo solver to tackle these problems and incentivize robot cooperation.

In combination with various background theories, a feasibility analysis of the resulting system may already be performed on partial solutions. That is, infeasible subsets of mapping and routing options can be pruned early in the decision process, which fastens the solving accordingly. However, allowing a proper design space exploration including multi-objective optimization also requires an efficient structure for storing and managing non-dominated solutions. In this work, we propose and study the usage of the Quad-Tree data structure in the context of partial assignment evaluation during system synthesis. Out experiments show that unnecessary dominance checks can be avoided, which indicates a preference of Quad-Trees over a commonly used list-based implementation for large combinatorial optimization problems.}, language = {en} } @misc{BosserCabalarDieguezetal.2018, author = {Bosser, Anne-Gwenn and Cabalar, Pedro and Dieguez, Martin and Schaub, Torsten H.}, title = {Introducing temporal stable models for linear dynamic logic}, series = {16th International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning}, journal = {16th International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning}, publisher = {ASSOC Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence}, address = {Palo Alto}, pages = {12 -- 21}, year = {2018}, abstract = {We propose a new temporal extension of the logic of Here-and-There (HT) and its equilibria obtained by combining it with dynamic logic over (linear) traces.

For instance, this can be used to exercise fine grained control when planning in robotics, as exemplified by GOLOG. In this paper, we lay the foundations of our approach, and refer to it as Linear Dynamic Equilibrium Logic, or simply DEL. We start by developing the formal framework of DEL and provide relevant characteristic results.

Our IoT architecture approach ensures interoperability using existing standards, i.e. MQTT protocol and SemanticWeb technologies. We herein introduce virtual IoT devices and their semantic framework deployed at the edge of network. As a result, virtual devices are enabled to aggregate capabilities of IoT devices, derive new services by inference, delegate requests/responses and generate events. Furthermore, they can collect and pre-process sensor data. These tasks on the edge computing overcome the shortcomings of the cloud usage regarding siloization, network bandwidth, latency and speed.

First, students are taught how to prove theorems with the Coq proof assistant. In a second, more difficult, step students will transfer their acquired skills to the area of textbook proofs. In this article we present a realisation of the second step. Proofs in Coq have a high degree of formality while textbook proofs have only a medium one. Therefore our key idea is to reduce the degree of formality from the level of Coq to textbook proofs in several small steps. For that purpose we introduce three proof styles between Coq and textbook proofs, called line by line comments, weakened line by line comments, and structure faithful proofs.

Unfortunately, this prevents the resulting experience from running on a smaller or differently shaped tracking volume. To address this, we present a software system called Scenograph. The core of Scenograph is a tracking volume-independent representation of real-walking experiences. Scenograph instantiates the experience to a tracking volume of given size and shape by splitting the locations into smaller ones while maintaining narrative structure. In our user study, participants' ratings of realism decreased significantly when existing techniques were used to map a 25m2 experience to 9m2 and an L-shaped 8m2 tracking volume.

Using sensor data of 30 participants collected in a semi-supervised study approach, we prove that unsupervised verification is possible with very low false-acceptance and false-rejection rates.
