Agile Planning for Real-World Disaster Response (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Wu, F., Ramchurn, S. D., Jiang, W., Fischer, J. E., Rodden, T., & Jennings, N. R. (2015, July). Agile Planning for Real-World Disaster Response. Presented at International Joint Conference on Artificial Intelligence (IJCAI-15), Buenos Aires, Argentina

We consider a setting where an agent-based planner instructs teams of human emergency responders to perform tasks in the real world. Due to uncertainty in the environment and the inability of the planner to consider all human preferences and all attr... Read More about Agile Planning for Real-World Disaster Response.
