Thesis Title
Hybrid Artificial Intelligence Algorithms for Autonomous Agents

Modern film and game productions make use of computer-driven actors.  These characters or vehicles need to move through their environment without crashing. This work experimented with a variety of different motion controllers for such actors based on a kind of decision-making called fuzzy logic. Implementations for large crowd scenes, physically simulated vehicles, and games are benchmarked and discussed.
