Abstract(in English) We define the potential for agents to cooperate with each other for the special environment where the agent cannot acquire complete information about the environment and many errors may occur, and agents also cannot communicate with each other. In this paper, we define the potential as information and influence about object in the environment. Superposition of individual potential is regarded as the potential of whole environment. We propose using potential of whole environment as evaluation function to decide agent's action. Furthermore, we apply this method to "rescue simulation" and show the effectiveness of our method.
