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 ...

Do Children Perceive Whether a Robotic Peer is Learning or Not?

Pierre Dillenbourg, Hang Yin, Shruti Chandra, Ana Paiva

Social robots are being used to create better educational scenarios, thereby fostering children's learning. In the work presented here, we describe an autonomous social robot that was designed to enhance children's handwriting skills. Exploiting the benefi ...

On Coordinated Primal-Dual Interior-Point Methods for Multi-Agent Optimization

Colin Neil Jones, Altug Bitlislioglu

This paper presents a coordinated primal-dual interior point (PDIP) method for solving structured convex linear and quadratic programs (LP-QP) in a distributed man- ner. The considered class of problems represents a multi-agent setting, where the aggregate ...

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 ...

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 ...

Characterizing first and third person viewpoints and their alternation for embodied interaction in virtual reality

Olaf Blanke, Ronan Boulic, Bruno Herbelin, Roy Salomon, Henrique Galvan Debarba, Sidney Bovet

Empirical research on the bodily self has shown that the body representation is malleable, and prone to manipulation when conflicting sensory stimuli are presented. Using Virtual Reality (VR) we assessed the effects of manipulating multisensory feedback (f ...

Darwinian Dynamics of Embodied Chaotic Exploration

Joshua Evan Auerbach

We present Embodied Chaotic Exploration (ECE), a novel direction of research into a possible candidate for Darwinian neural dynamics, where such dynamics are occurring not at the level of synaptic connections, but rather at the slightly higher and more abs ...

Learning Search Strategies from Human Demonstrations

Guillaume Pierre Luc De Chambrier

Decision making and planning with partial state information is a problem faced by all forms of intelligent entities. The formulation of a problem under partial state information leads to an exorbitant set of choices with associated probabilistic outcomes m ...

Elicitation and Aggregation of Crowd Information

Goran Radanovic

This thesis addresses challenges in elicitation and aggregation of crowd information for settings where an information collector, called center, has a limited knowledge about information providers, called agents. Each agent is assumed to have noisy private ...
