Future agent applications will increasingly represent human users autonomously or semi-autonomously in strategic interactions with similar entities. Hence, there is a growing need...
Service-Oriented Computing and Agent Technology are nowadays two of the most active research fields in distributed and open systems. However, when trying to bridge the two worlds,...
A rational agent adopts (or changes) its goals when new information (beliefs) becomes available or its desires (e.g., tasks it is supposed to carry out) change. In conventional ap...
Recent work in transfer learning has succeeded in making reinforcement learning algorithms more efficient by incorporating knowledge from previous tasks. However, such methods typ...
In this paper we address the problem of coordination in multi-agent sequential decision problems with infinite statespaces. We adopt a game theoretic formalism to describe the int...
Game theory has been playing an increasingly visible role in computer science, in areas as diverse as artificial intelligence, theory, and distributed systems, among others. I tak...
This paper studies self-organized flocking in a swarm of mobile robots. We present Kobot, a mobile robot platform developed specifically for swarm robotic studies, briefly describ...
In strategic multiagent decision making, it is often the case that a strategic reasoner must hold beliefs about other agents and use these beliefs to inform its decision making. T...
