When does opinion formation within an interacting group lead to consensus, polarization or fragmentation? The article investigates various models for the dynamics of continuous opi...
This paper illustrates how a computer model, based on Venn-networks, mimics a physiological phenomenon present in brains of higher animals: contra-lateral inhibition. The experimen...
—Smart Homes and Domotic Environments are promising to revolutionize the daily human life providing users with increased care, adaptability and safety. However, to fully exploit ...
Abstract. The Monte-Carlo Tree Search algorithm has been successfully applied in various domains. However, its performance heavily depends on the Monte-Carlo part. In this paper, w...
User simulations are shown to be useful in spoken dialog system development. Since most current user simulations deploy probability models to mimic human user behaviors, how to se...
