Abstract

This paper presents the work to enhance virtual agents with the abilities of interacting with the environment and planning based on goals and internal states. We describe how we designed intelligent virtual agents that are able to perform tasks on a high-risk plant and that respond to expected as well as unexpected events. We proposed an informed virtual environment where agents are able to interact with other agents or avatars. By enhancing their reasoning abilities with cognitive rules and the environment with knowledge the virtual agents are able to exhibit deviated behaviors.
