Abstract
In this paper we describe an experiment where team performance is evaluated by intelligent agents with fuzzy logic reasoning. Although not paramount to the study, which seeks to formally define where and how can intelligent agents help assessing team performance, fuzzy logic was implemented using a set of performance evaluation rules. Results show that the intelligent agents are able to perceive and critically evaluate a team’s performance.
