Learning to Control Self-Assembling Morphologies: A Study of Generalization via Modularity

TL;DR: This paper investigates a modular co-evolution strategy: a collection of primitive agents learns to dynamically self-assemble into composite bodies while also learning to coordinate their behavior to control these bodies.
Journal ArticleDOI

The lifecycle of active and intelligent products: The augmentation concept

TL;DR: This paper aims to demonstrate the consistency of extending the active or intelligent product concept to the whole product lifecycle, and focuses on the manufacturing phase, describing a real implementation on a flexible assembly cell at Valenciennes AIP Primeca pole.
Proceedings ArticleDOI

Rule-based activity recognition framework: Challenges, technique and learning

TL;DR: This paper presents their multi-agent-based activity recognition framework as well as experiences made with it and elaborate on the tailoring of the underlying reasoning models to the individual environments and users in an initial learning phase.

IJCSI Publicity Board 2010

TL;DR: This paper presents a systematic analysis of a variety of different ad hoc network topologies in terms of node placement, node mobility and routing protocols through several simulated scenarios.
Journal ArticleDOI

An intelligent agent-based architecture for strategic information system applications

TL;DR: This article investigates the very fundamental concepts of strategic information systems and intelligent agent technology and integrates them into a state-of-the-art, intelligent architecture for strategic Information Systems in IT era, called intelligent agent-based SIS.

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
Journal ArticleDOI

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.
