Trusted Registration, Negotiation, and Service Evaluation in Multi-Agent Systems throughout the Blockchain Technology

Michael Ignaz Schumacher, Alevtina Dubovitskaya

Some recent trends in distributed intelligent systems rely extensively on agent-based approaches. The so-called Multi Agent Systems (MAS) are taking over the management of sensitive data on behalf of their producers and users (e.g., medical records, financ ...

Tomography Of Adaptive Multi-Agent Networks Under Limited Observation

Ali H. Sayed

This work studies the problem of inferring from streaming data whether an agent is directly influenced by another agent over an adaptive network of interacting agents. Agent i influences agent j if they are connected, and if agent j uses the information fr ...

Unravelling socio-motor biomarkers in schizophrenia

Aude Billard, Mahdi Khoramshahi, Laura Bénédicte Marine Cohen

We present novel, low-cost and non-invasive potential diagnostic biomarkers of schizophrenia. They are based on the 'mirrorgame', a coordination task in which two partners are asked to mimic each other's hand movements. In particular, we use the patient's ...

Rapport with Virtual Agents: What do Human Social Cues and Personality Explain?

Daniel Gatica-Perez, Oya Aran

Rapport has been recognized as an important aspect of relationship building. While rapport in the context of human-human interaction has been widely studied, how it can be established and maintained in human-agent interaction has been studied only recently ...

Learning by networked agents under partial information

Ali H. Sayed

In many scenarios of interest, agents may only have access to partial information about an unknown model or target vector. Each agent may be sensing only a subset of the entries of a global target vector, and the number of these entries can be different ac ...

AniSAM & AniAvatar – Animated Visualizations of Affective States

Andreas Sonderegger

Tools that provide visual feedback about emotions to the user in the form of an avatar or an emoticon have become increasingly important. While a great deal of effort has already been put into the reliable and accurate automatic detection of emotions, only ...

Puissances de la dérivée. Égogéographies d’aujourd’hui

Jacques Lévy

Twenty years after the publication of his book, Égogéographies, the author makes a balance sheet of the approach he developed in the book. Exploring a researcher’s psyche first of all implies the necessity of putting apart any social epistemology that refu ...

Collaborative Housing and the Intermediation of Moral Hazard

Thomas Alois Weber

This paper considers intermediation in a differentiated short-term housing market where heterogeneous agents may stay at a hotel or at one of several private hosts' properties, below or above hotel quality. The collaborative-housing market fails when agent ...

Evolution of division of labor in artificial societies

Pawel Lichocki

Natural and artificial societies often divide the workload between specialized members. For example, an ant worker may preferentially perform one of many tasks such as brood rearing, foraging and nest maintenance. A robot from a rescue team may specialize ...

Towards bio-hybrid systems made of social animals and robots

Francesco Mondada

For making artificial systems collaborate with group-living animals, the scientific challenge is to build artificial systems that can perceive, communicate to, interact with and adapt to animals. When such capabilities are available then it should be possi ...
