This is where I collect and write things, mostly on academe and artificial intelligence. Established in 2010, by Vaishak Belle.

1. 4 papers at AAMAS-2023

   We were happy to find out we have 4 papers accepted at AAMAS-2023. I’ll be blogging more details about these contributions in the coming weeks. But in the meantime, here are the titles and a short blurb

   • “Learnability with PAC Semantics for Multi-agent Beliefs” - I Mocanu, B Juba, V Belle

   Looks at the robust learning on multi-agent epistemic formulas, as enabled by the PAC-semantics. See our NeurIPS-2019 paper for the single agent first-order version, for example.

   •   "A Logic of Only-Believing over  Arbitrary Probability Distributions" - Q Feng, D Liu, G Lakemeyer, V Belle

   Considers a first-order probabilistic logic allowing for infinitely many variables, characterized by either discrete or continuous or mixed distributions.

   •    “Actions, Continuous  Distributions and Meta-Beliefs” - V Belle

   Revisits the situation calculus extension for degrees of belief in continuous domains and presents a modal version.

   • “Abstracting Noisy Robot Programs” - T Hoffman, V Belle

   proposes a semantics for abstracting belief-based probabilistic programs (like ALLEGRO from IJCAI-15 by Belle and Levesque) as noise-free epistemic GOLOG programs.
