Abstract

Soccer playing robots are a well established test bed for the development of artificial intelligence for use in real environments. The challenges include perception, decision making and acting in a dynamic environment with only unreliable and partial information. Behaviors and skills for such environments must be optimized by experiences. Case Based Reasoning provides an excellent framework for learning as discussed in this paper.
