International Intention Progression Competition 2024

Second Call for Participation

BACKGROUND

A key problem for an autonomous agent with multiple, possibly inconsistent, goals is: "what should I do next"?  What to do next can be formalised as the Intention Progression Problem (IPP): what means (i.e., plan) to use to achieve a given (sub)goal, and which of the currently adopted plans (i.e., intentions) to progress at the current moment. This problem is central to autonomous systems, but research on the IPP is fragmented and suffers from a lack of common terminology, data formats, and enabling tools.

AIMS

The aim of the International Intention Progression Competition (IIPC) is to incentivise research on the problem of how an agent should achieve its goals, i.e., which plan to use to achieve a given goal, and which of the currently adopted plans (intentions) to progress at the current moment. Competition entries take the form of a solver for intention progression problems. The solver forms a part of a simple agent that operates in a simulated environment and is evaluated on a set of benchmark intention progression problems. The agent, environment and problem instances are specified as part of the competition.
