This seminar will cover different approaches to synthesize models for agent behavior, divided into two tracks: The first track focuses on creating behavior models using Learning-from-Demonstration and Behavior Trees. The second track investigates approaches from the field of Neurosymbolic AI to synthesize domain- and action models.
