Abstract:

This paper focuses on our recent research effort aimedat developing human-like, intelligent agents (virtualhumans) for large-scale, interactive simulationenvironments (virtual reality). These simulatedenvironments have sufficiently high fidelity andrealism[l 1,23] that constructing intelligent agentsrequires us to face many of the hard research challengesfaced by physical agents in the real world -- inparticular, the integration of a variety of intelligentcapabilities, including goal-driven behavior, reactivity,real-time performance, planning, learning, spatial andtemporal reasoning, and natural languagecommunication. However, since this is a syntheticenvironment, these intelligent agents do not have to dealwith issues of low-level perception and robotic control.Important applications of this agent technology can be found in areas such as education [14],manufacturing [11],entertainment [2, 12]and training.
