  • Abstract
    In this paper a sequential team form for dynamic teams is defined. A team form captures the properties of teams that only depend on the independence relation between the system variables but do not depend on the exact functional form of these relationships or on the state space of the variables. A notion of simplifying team forms is presented. We represent team forms using a directed acyclic factor graph and present a graphical model algorithm to simplify the team form.
