Intelligent agents in virtual world

An intelligent agent is able to receive input and act in a certain manner. It is also capable of learning to a certain degree and can represent knowledge. The study of knowledge learning and representation in intelligent agents can benefit systems deploying autonomous/intelligent agents in informati...
