Abstract
Emergence of language grounded in perception
has been studied in computational agent societies with language games.
In this paper we introduce methods that can be used to ground
a language in the needs of the agents, i.e. practicality.
The needs of an agent arise from its goals and environment, which
together dictate what kind of a language is practical.
The methods are tested in multi-agent simulations.
Our results show that with our methods a practical language can emerge.
Interestingly we also observed, that a language does not need to be coherent
in the whole society for it to have practical benefits for the agents.
