ABSTRACT
We present a method for learning a human understandable, executable model of an agent's behavior using observations of its interaction with the environment. By executable we mean that the model is suitable for direct execution by an agent. Traditional models of behavior used for recognition tasks (e.g., Hidden Markov Models) are insufficent for this problem because they cannot respond to input from the environment. We train an Input/Output Hidden Markov Model where the output distributions are mixtures of learned low level actions and the transition distributions are conditional on features detected by the agent's sensors. We show that the system is able to learn both the behavior and human-understandable structure of a simulated model.

Learning Sharing Behaviors with Arbitrary Numbers of Agents
AAMAS '18: Proceedings of the 17th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and MultiAgent SystemsWe propose a method for modeling and learning turn-taking behaviors for accessing a shared resource. We model the individual behavior for each agent in an interaction and then use a multi-agent fusion model to generate a summary over the expected ...
An Overview of Opponent Modeling for Multi-agent Competition
Machine Learning for Cyber SecurityAbstractMulti-agent system (MAS) is an area of distributed artificial intelligence that emphasizes the joint behaviors of agents with some degree of autonomy and the complexities arising from their interactions. Multi-agent systems can solve problems that ...
Simulating human behaviors in agent societies
AAMAS '08: Proceedings of the 7th international joint conference on Autonomous agents and multiagent systems - Volume 3As increasing numbers of processors and agents pervade the human environment, societies comprising both humans and agents will emerge. Presently, it is unknown how a person might fair in such mixed societies. For the societies to operate effectively and ...
