Research interests

My goal is to design control models of temporal adaptive intelligent agents, which act in their environment: Present action but also memory of the past and intentions/predictions towards the future.  My focus lays on temporal representations and algorithms to orient the action of an agent. To make it short, my research topic is temporal action, where it comes from and where it leads to, its instantaneity being delegated to robotic procedures.

Domains:

Artificial Intelligence, planning (partial-order causal-link planning, genetic planning, etc), scheduling, combinatorial optimization (constraint programming, evolutionary algorithms, etc), cognitive architectures (two-level, ontology-based, etc), multi-agent systems, ontologies, knowledge-based systems, path-planning, Intelligent Transportation Systems, Robotics.

     YAPS (Yet Another Planning System) is an A.I. planner based on David Chapman’s modal truth criterion. This criterion infers how to make a precondition possibly/necessary true in a partially-ordered partially-instantied plan of actions. And it deduces the modal truth value of a precondition in such a plan. A backtracking best-first search in the space of partial plans is used to control the search.YAPS is tested on the domains of the blocks world, the towers of Hanoi, recursive planning, ski, robots and office factotum.
     The source code in Common Lisp and the planning domains are available here.
