Full textThis paper describes a service-based Intelligent Agent (IA) approach for machine learning and data mining of distributed heterogeneous data streams. We focus on an open architecture framework that enables the programmer/analyst to build an IA suite for mining, examining and evaluating heterogeneous data for semantic representations, while iteratively building the probabilistic model in real-time to improve predictability. The Framework facilitates model development and evaluation while delivering the capability to tune machine learning algorithms and models to deliver increasingly favorable scores prior to production deployment. The IA Framework focuses on open standard interoperability, simplifying integration into existing environments.

Full textThe World-Wide Web WWW based Internet services have become a major channel for information delivery. For the same reason, information overload also has become a serious problem to the users of such services. It has been estimated that the amount of information stored on the Internet doubled every 18 months. The speed of increase of homepages can be even faster, some people estimated that it doubled every 6 months. Therefore, a scalable approach to support Internet searching is critical to the success of Internet services and other current or future National Information Infrastructure NII applications. In this paper, we discuss a modified version of simulated annealing algorithm to develop an intelligent personal spider agent, which is based on automatic textual analysis of the Internet documents and hybrid simulated annealing.

Full textThis thesis advocates the use of non-‐gaming virtual worlds as a significant future technology for the domain of ``serious games’’ and in particular e-‐* applications (e-‐ learning, e-‐commerce, e-‐government) and social simulations. In such systems, a 3D virtual environment is populated by a large number of inhabitants that can be either human-‐ controlled avatars or intelligent virtual agents who engage in complex interactions with their virtual environment and other participants. One significant problem that impedes wide adoption of the virtual worlds technology for these problem domains is that virtual worlds in general are difficult to build, and significant effort has to be put into designing the 3D virtual environment and programming virtual agents; but it is even harder to ensure the validity of participant so that unauthorized behavior can be prevented. To address this problem, we have developed a comprehensive technological solution that automates the design of such virtual worlds and its population with virtual agents. Our approach is based on the utilization of virtual institutions, which are virtual worlds with normative regulation of participant interactions. The key focus of the thesis is on explaining how existing methods of formal specification of virtual institutions can be extended to automatically translate the institutional specification into an interactive 3D environment using the shape grammars approach and automatically populating such environments with virtual agents. Shape grammars represent a powerful visual technique for creating procedural 2D and 3D designs, but existing work was not immediately suitable for our problem. Thus, we have extended existing work and developed the Shape Grammar Interpreter framework, which addresses the limitations of existing solutions. This framework was further utilized for developing the concept of Virtual World Grammar, which is a sub-‐set of shape grammars targeting automatic generation of normative virtual worlds. As the result of this dissertation, Virtual Worlds Grammars constitute a strong formalization and a development environment not only enabling automatic generation of normative virtual worlds, but also their platform independent deployment (using the VIXEE infrastructure that has been developed as an important part of this dissertation). Another significant contribution of this thesis is developing a mechanism of automatic population of the generated environments with large numbers of software agents, which are capable of intelligent interactions with 3D objects placed in the environment. Moreover, these agents are able to collaborate with human-‐controlled avatars, facilitate their problem-‐solving and ensure that all their actions strictly adhere to social norms of the given institution. For this purpose, we have developed a general-‐purpose virtual agent model that enables an agent to be situated within any normative virtual world, generate its own goals based on its current physiological and psychological needs, as well as to dynamically generate plans for satisfying these goals using the underlying institutional specification. To illustrate the usefulness of the developed technology, we have applied it to the domain of historical simulation, where we show how virtual world grammars and automatically generated virtual agents can be used for re-‐enacting everyday life of ancient people in one of humanity's first cities, the city of Uruk. We showed how our approach allows to create a large number of visually and behaviorally diverse agents, as well as dynamically generating food, tools and other items that they can utilize to satisfy their goals, while acting in a historically correct way.

In this thesis, I designed and implemented a framework for reinforcement learning (RL) agents to interact with a web environment. With this framework, I introduce a new challenge for RL agents to learn human activity on the web. By defining a series of tasks such as using the web as a navigable resource to perform actions, I introduce an extension to natural language processing models. The framework provides an agent with rich features including element positioning, color, and size in order to process text represented in a 2D web space..

This dissertation addresses a fundamental question behind when multiple autonomous sys- tems, like drone swarms, in the field need to coordinate and share data: what information should be sent to whom and when, with the limited resources available to each agent? Intelligent Knowledge Distribution is a framework that answers these questions. Communication requirements for multi-agent systems can be rather high when an accurate picture of the environment and the state of other agents must be maintained. To reduce the impact of multi-agent coordination on networked systems, e.g., power and bandwidth, this dissertation introduces new concepts to enable Intelligent Knowledge Distribution (IKD), including Constrained-action POMDPs and concurrent decentralized (CoDec) POMDPs for an agnostic plug-and-play capability for fully autonomous systems. The IKD model was able to demonstrate its validity as a "plug-and-play" library that manages communications between agents that ensures the right information is being transmitted at the right time to the right agent to ensure mission success.

Full textThe use of computer systems has changed over the years. Modern computer systems operate in an environment that is open, distributed and heterogeneous. They have the capability of locating information stored in remote locations and satisfying the interests and objectives of different users. However, the increase in user demands and the complexity of computers and information systems has caused research to focus on multi-agent systems as a solution to address these demands and complexities. The dissertation deals with the study of single agents and multi-agent systems. The study focuses on the concepts of agents, agent architecture and multi-agent systems. In addition to the study, a taxonomy for specialised agents is proposed. The taxonomy aims at classifying agent-based systems applied in the industry for addressing specific problems. In order to achieve this, a broad survey on agent-based systems in the industry was conducted. The areas under considerations were the financial, health, agricultural, aviation and the information technology sectors. The following dimensions were used to identify the agents in the specific area: • Which application domain is the multi-agent system designed for, developed and deployed in? • What is the specific task or problem the agents are designed to solve? • Do the agents have core or advanced agent attributes in general? The taxonomy is important because agent-based systems are becoming common in the industry and are suitable to address issues (such as locating distributed information and addressing specific needs of computer system users) of open, distributed and heterogeneous computer environments.

The concept of Knowledge Community has been applied to some knowledge management. By sharing and interchanging information with others, users are able to learn from peers and thus enhance the reusability and potential value of information. The proposed concept in our research called “Intelligent Agent for Knowledge Community”, it help the enterprise to develop Knowledge Community. When a user issue a question, Dynamic Knowledge Community Agent automatic analyzed the question then recruited suitable experts and users. And we propose to employ new data mining methodology to discover user’s need dynamically in circulation database.We establish a prototype system based on “Intelligent Agent for Knowledge Community”. And we interview the postgraduates for investigating the benefits and drawbacks of the prototype system. The results show that Dynamic Knowledge Community Agent does have improvement over user satisfaction.

There are several decades of research in the Computer Assisted Instruction (CAI) and Hypermedia System (HMS). However, there is little progress on adaptive and personal instruction policy and navigation method in the general hypermedia instruction systems. In another word, the characters of the learner in the study and navigation process were not considered. Therefore, the learner may encounter difficulties such as misconception, disorientation and increases cognition overload during the study period, and not only to waste the learning time but also reduce the efficiency. Consequently, we propose a multi-agent architecture that is Intelligent Instruction Agent (IIA). IIA can simulates the teaching behaviors of the teacher which include observe the student''s learning behaviors, to analysis the student''s idiosyncrasy, to recommend the learning materials to student, to guide the student''s navigation, to modify and to adjust the instruction policy. IIA can be divided into Character Analysis Agent, Policy Agent and Navigation Agent that depends on responsibility and task of the subagent. Consequently IIA can overcomes navigation and learning problems in the hypermedia environment by collaboration of these subagents. The Character Analysis Agent can analysis the characters of the learner, while the Policy Agent can selected a Navigation Agent from the set of the navigation strategies and an instruction policy. To design IIA there are two important factors. The first is the intelligence of each subagent. In another word, that is the contents of the specialist database. The second factor is the appropriate of the inference rule of each subagent. However these factors has not yet been fully studied. For this reason, the system also provides an interface for the specialist to add or modify the knowledge database. We expect to offer a personal and adaptive environment by this instruction agent, and to assist learner''s study properly and efficiently. Moreover, we expect to reduce the problems of misconception and disorientation to decrease the cognition overload. On the other hand, we hope to evaluate the multi-agent theory and technology can help and apply to the complex intelligent systems efficiently. This system is only a prototype and there is a lot room to improve it especially the content of knowledge database for every agent.

The internet enables a computer user to be connected to virtually endless numbers of sites on the network. Massive amount of information is being pumped into the internet at a great rate around the clock. The World-Wide-Web (WWW) uses the internet to transmit hypermedia documents between computer users located around the world. Computer users only use a simple browser software (ie: Internet Explorer, Netscape) to view the hypermedia documents on a website. Large amount of interesting and valuable information has been made available on the web for retrieval, but these hypermedia documents are not often origanized and systematic. In order to fully utilize the power of the WWW as a gigantic information source, it is essential to develop intelligent software systems on top of the web to assist users to retrieve relevant documents. In this paper, we propose an architecture of the intelligent browsing agent and identify the key components of it. This agent is designed on a website and serves its members. This intelligent browsing agent can analyze the users` browsing behaviors to find their interesting topics and browsing patterns. Then it can assist users to browse the website by recommend users` interesting documents. In addition to, the agent can monitor to new information on the website to find any documents which users interest. If the agent find new information which users interest, it can ask the users to browse the website by e-mail. So the intelligent browsing agent can help the website to keep old browsing users and attract new people to visit the website.

A nossa abordagem permite superar estas limitações através da utilização de um algoritmo genérico de coordenação de resolução distribuída de problemas em ambientes totalmente não estruturados, o qual permite a cada agente decompor problemas em sub-problemas, identificar aqueles que consegue resolver e procurar outros agentes a quem delegar os subproblemas para os quais não tem conhecimento suficiente. Para a decomposição de problemas, criámos duas versões distribuídas do algoritmo de planeamento Graphplan. Para procurar os agentes com as capacidades necessárias à resolução das partes não resolvidas do problema, criámos dois algoritmos de procura que constroem e mantêm uma camada de rede semântica que relaciona agentes dependentes com o fim de facilitar as procuras. A nossa abordagem foi avaliada em dois cenários diferentes, o que nos permitiu concluir que ´e uma abordagem eficiente, escalável e robusta, possibilitando a resolução distribuída e coordenada de problemas complexos em ambientes não estruturados sem os pressupostos inaceitáveis em que assentava o trabalho feito até agora.

With the growth of the electronic commerce on the internet, people can easily get product information, such as features, evaluation, and price. The useful information can help consumers to find the suitable merchandises. However, people often waste a lot of time to complete the transaction. Due to this reason, our proposal is to bring up a negotiation strategy to complete the trade in an effective time. The purchasers require to offer the degree of favorite and the range of the price. Using these parameters, the benefits of users are to save their money and gain their best choices in a short time. This process is called intelligent agent’s negotiation. Today, researchers use many negotiation strategies, including Game Theory and Decision Making. Our strategy can help consumer to purchase goods on the Internet conveniently. We wish this project can not only to be used on general site but also to be applied in a group auction. In the future, this strategy could be more full-fledged suitable for the user’s demand.
