Bio-Inspired Decentralized Radio Access Based on Swarming Mechanisms Over Adaptive Networks

Ali H. Sayed

The goal of this paper is to study the learning abilities of adaptive networks in the context of cognitive radio networks and to investigate how well they assist in allocating power and communications resources in the frequency domain. The allocation mecha ...

Trust beyond reputation: A computational trust model based on stereotypes

Anwitaman Datta, Xin Liu

Models of computational trust support users in taking decisions. They are commonly used to guide users' judgements in online auction sites; or to determine quality of contributions in Web 2.0 sites. However, most existing systems require historical informa ...

Portfolio construction under information asymmetry

Lionel Coulot

We introduce in this thesis the idea of a variable lookback model, i.e., a model whose predictions are based on a variable portion of the information set. We verify the intuition of this model in the context of experimental finance. We also propose a novel ...

Incremental Learning using Partial Feedback for Gesture-based Human-Swarm Interaction

In this paper we consider a human-swarm interaction scenario based on hand gestures. We study how the swarm can incrementally learn hand gestures through the interaction with a human instructor providing training gestures and correction feedback. The main ...

Honeybee swarming behavior using diffusion adaptation

Ali H. Sayed

Honeybees swarm when they move to a new site for their hive. During the process of swarming, their behavior can be analyzed by classifying them as informed scouts or uninformed bees, where the scouts have information about the destination while the uninfor ...

Mobile phone-induced honeybee worker piping

The worldwide maintenance of the honeybee has major ecological, economic, and political implications. In the present study, electromagnetic waves originating from mobile phones were tested for potential effects on honeybee behavior. Mobile phone handsets w ...

Distributed Adaptation in Multi-Robot Search using Particle Swarm Optimization

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh

We present an adaptive strategy for a group of robots engaged in the localization of multiple targets. The robotic search algorithm is inspired by chemotaxis behavior in bacteria, and the algorithmic parameters are updated using a distributed implementatio ...

Communication in a Swarm of Miniature Robots: The e-Puck as an Educational Tool for Swarm Robotics

Alcherio Martinoli, James Pugh, Christopher Cianci, Xavier Raemy

Swarm intelligence, and swarm robotics in particular, are reaching a point where leveraging the potential of communication within an artificial systempromises to uncover newand varied directions for interesting research without compromising the key propert ...

Modeling and Optimization of a Swarm-Intelligent Inspection System

Alcherio Martinoli, Nicolaus Correll

We present a simple, behavior-based, distributed control algorithm to inspect a regular structure with a swarm of autonomous, miniature robots, using only on-board, local sensors. To estimate intrinsic advantages and limita- tions of the proposed control s ...
