Corpus-based Intention Recognition in Cooperation Dilemmas
August 2012
corpusAL12
Partial abstract: Resorting to the tools of evolutionary game theory, herein we describe a computational model showing how intention recognition co-evolves with cooperation in populations of self-regarding individuals. By equipping some individuals with the capacity of assessing the intentions of others in the course of the repeated Prisoner's Dilemma, we show how intention recognition is favored by natural selection, for cooperation to thrive. We introduce a new strategy (IR) that is able to assign an intention to the actions of opponents, on the basis of an acquired corpus consisting of possible plans achieving that intention, as well as to then make decisions on the basis of such recognized intentions. We show how intention recognizers do indeed prevail against the most famous successful strategies of iterated dilemmas of cooperation, even in the presence of errors and reduction of fitness associated with a small cognitive cost for performing intention recognition.
