    Mobbing Behavior and Deceit and its role in Bioinspired Autonomous Robotic Agents
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2012) Davis, Justin ; Arkin, Ronald C.
    Arabian babblers are highly preyed upon avians living in the Israeli desert. The survival of this species is contingent upon successful predator deterrence known as mobbing. Their ability to successfully defend against larger predators is the inspiration for this research with the goal of employing new models of robotic deception. Using Grafen's Dishonesty Model [3], simulation results are presented, which portend the value of this behavior in military situations.

    Overriding Ethical Constraints in Lethal Autonomous Systems
    (Georgia Institute of Technology, 2012) Arkin, Ronald C. ; Ulam, Patrick D.
    This article describes the philosophy, design, and prototype implementation of an operator override system intended for use in managing unmanned robotic systems capable of lethal behavior. The ethical ramifications associated with the responsibility assignment of such a system are presented, which guide the development of the proof-of-concept system that serves as the basis for the simulation results presented herein.
