UvA Trilearn 2005 - Soccer Simulation Team

Objectives

UvA Trilearn is the RoboCup Soccer Simulation team from the Intelligent Autonomous Systems Group (IAS) of the University of Amsterdam. This team participates since 2001 in the RoboCup competition with as main success the world champion title in RoboCup-2003. In our current work, UvA Trilearn 2005, we are especially interested in specifying further the coordination between the different agents using approximate alternatives for variable elimination in coordination graphs and apply this model for teammate coordination.
