later veried through an exchange of simple messages with the other agents. The
observer is also provided with a utility-function which could make the agent
violate a recognized norm.
This aspect and the communication component
are not relevant to our work because we concentrate on observational learning
approaches.
Every time an agent violates a norm by performing an action
or a sequence of actions which are forbidden in the system, another agent, if
it is geographically close to the violating one, can sanction it.
The observer
agent, which sees this event, starts its reasoning invoking the Candidate Norm
Inference (CNI) algorithm which is shown below.
