Building cognitive model of intelligent agent in Virtual Geographical Environment

Abstract

Virtual Geographical Environment is a special instance of virtual environment, which pays more attention to the geographical spatio-temporal properties of all objects and to modeling and simulating macroscopical behaviors of intelligent objects within the geographical space. Modeling intelligent virtual agent is the key of making virtual geographical environment intelligent. Object-oriented Knowledge Representation of virtual geographical space and cognitive mechanism based on composite structure of agent are proposed. Synthetic vision is adopted to simulate the visual sensor of intelligent objects. All above methods meet well the requirements of constructing virtual geographical environment.
