Embodied Cognition in Directed Multi-Agent Systems - Empirical Study on Subjective Distance

This paper deals with a cooperation form of highly directed multi-agent systems (DMAS), where a coordinated play takes more important role than conventional MAS. We propose a concept of subjective distance, which is a sense of distance subjectively perceived by a directed agent. This paper formulates the subjective distance and empirically verifies proposed concept with actual canoe polo players.
