Emerging Techniques for Enhancing the Practical Application of City Logistics Models

TL;DR: In this article, a review of emerging techniques for enhancing the practical application of city logistics models is presented, which can be classified into two types: optimisation models and simulation models.
Journal ArticleDOI

Crowdsourcing, Open Innovation and Collective Intelligence in the scientific method: a research agenda and operational framework

TL;DR: A research agenda is proposed that investigates a) the applicability of Crowdsourcing to fundamental science and b) the impact of distributed agent principles from Artificial Intelligence research on the robustness ofrowdsourcing.

Enterprise Information Systems Architecture—Analysis and Evaluation

TL;DR: The empirical evaluation on the selection of a supply chain software tool has shown that the developed method offers remarkable insights of software development and can be incorporated into the industrial informatics practice of an organization with a moderate cost.

Theoretical considerations of potential-based reward shaping for multi-agent systems

TL;DR: It is proven that the equivalence to Q-table initialisation remains and the Nash Equilibria of the underlying stochastic game are not modified, and it is demonstrated empirically that potential-based reward shaping affects exploration and, consequentially, can alter the joint policy converged upon.

Open Problems in Cooperative AI

TL;DR: This research integrates ongoing work on multi-agent systems, game theory and social choice, human-machine interaction and alignment, natural-language processing, and the construction of social tools and platforms into Cooperative AI, which is an independent bet about the productivity of specific kinds of conversations that involve these and other areas.

Statistical physics of social dynamics

TL;DR: In this article, a wide list of topics ranging from opinion and cultural and language dynamics to crowd behavior, hierarchy formation, human dynamics, and social spreading are reviewed and connections between these problems and other, more traditional, topics of statistical physics are highlighted.

Developing multiagent systems: The Gaia methodology

TL;DR: It is argued that a multiagent system can naturally be viewed and architected as a computational organization, and the appropriate organizational abstractions that are central to the analysis and design of such systems are identified.

Programming Multi-Agent Systems in AgentSpeak using Jason (Wiley Series in Agent Technology)

TL;DR: The Jason Agent Programming Language as discussed by the authors is a programming language based on the BDI Agent Model that allows to define simulated environments and communicate with multiple agents in a BDI agent language.
Book ChapterDOI

Computational Intelligence: An Introduction

TL;DR: The general public becomes rapidly jaded with such ‘bold predictions’ that fail to live up to their original hype, and which ultimately render the zealots’ promises as counter-productive.

Agent-based systems for manufacturing

TL;DR: The evolution of agent technologies and manufacturing will probably proceed hand in hand and the former can receive real challenges from the latter, which will have more and more benefits in applying agent technologies, presumably together with well-established or emerging approaches of other disciplines.
