  • Patent number: 11237933
    Abstract: Techniques for solving a multi-agent plan recognition problem are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method comprises transforming, by a device operatively coupled to a processor, a problem model and an at least partially ordered sequence of observations into an artificial intelligence planning problem through a transform algorithm. The problem model can comprises a domain description from a plurality of agents and a durative action. Furthermore, at least one of the observations of the at least partially ordered sequence of observations can be a condition that changes over time. The computer-implemented method further comprises determining, by the device, plan information using an artificial intelligence planner on the artificial intelligence planning problem. The computer-implemented method further comprises translating, by the device, the plan information into information indicative of a solution to the artificial intelligence planning problem.

  • Patent number: 11107182
    Abstract: Techniques for translating graphical representations of domain knowledge are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method comprises receiving, by a device operatively coupled to a processor, a graphical representation of domain knowledge. The graphical representation comprises information indicative of a central concept and at least one chain of events associated with the central concept. The computer-implemented method further comprises translating, by the device, the graphical representation into an artificial intelligence planning problem. The artificial intelligence planning problem is expressed in an artificial intelligence description language. The translating comprises parsing the graphical representation into groupings of terms. A first grouping of terms of the grouping of terms comprises an event from the at least one chain of events and a second grouping of terms of the grouping of terms comprises the information indicative of the central concept.

  • Patent number: 11030561
    Abstract: Techniques for scenario planning are provided. In one example, a computer-implemented method can comprise analyzing, by a device operatively coupled to a processor, content using a topic model. The content can be associated with a defined source and is related to one or more current events. The computer-implemented method can also comprise determining, by the device, one or more portions of the analyzed content that are relevant to one or more key risk drivers using a risk driver model. The computer-implemented method can also comprise aggregating, by the device, the determined one or more portions into one or more emerging storylines based on values of one or more attributes of the topic model.

The method may include receiving into a goal specification interface at least one goal to be accomplished by the set of plans; receiving into a preference engine a pattern that includes preferences; generating a planning problem by using the preference engine; generating a set of plans by at least one planner; and providing the set of plans for selection of one plan to deploy. In a further embodiment, the preferences may be an occurrence or non-occurrence of at least one component, an occurrence of one component over another component, an ordering between at least two components, an existence or non-existence of at least one tag in a final stream, an existence of one tag over another tag in the final stream.
