Behavior Selection Algorithm

In artificial intelligence, a behavior selection algorithm selects appropriate behaviors or actions for intelligent agents. Common behavior selection algorithms include finite-state machines, hierarchical finite-state machines, decision trees, behavior trees, hierarchical task networks, hierarchical control systems, and utility systems. Behavior selection algorithms are related to concepts like cognitive models, systems theory, computer-aided design, and case-based reasoning.

Behavior selection algorithm

In artificial intelligence, a behavior selection algorithm,[1] or action selection algorithm, is an algorithm


that selects appropriate behaviors or actions for one or more intelligent agents. In game artificial
intelligence, it selects behaviors or actions for one or more non-player characters. Common behavior
selection algorithms include:

Finite-state machines
Hierarchical finite-state machines
Decision trees
Behavior trees
Hierarchical task networks
Hierarchical control systems
Utility systems
Dialogue tree (for selecting what to say)

Related concepts
In application programming, run-time selection of the behavior of a specific method is referred to as the
strategy design pattern.
