Argumentative Learning with Intelligent Agents
… limited applications in school contexts to date. Intelligent agents have been proposed as virtual peers in recent research and they exhibit many benefits for learning. Argumentation support systems have also been developed to support learning through human-human argumentation. Unfortunately these …

Artificial markets and intelligent agents
… with human subjects and simulations with intelligent agents, to address some of the limitations of theoretical modeling. The thesis aims to study the design, development and characterization of artificial markets as well as the behaviors and strategies of intelligent trading and market …

Intrusion detection, intelligent agents, and soft computing
… that the ideal IDS should be distributed, intelligent (i.e. perceptual and adaptive) and heterogeneous. Consequently, artificial intelligence approaches are taken within the application domain of intrusion detection in general. LTl particular, a multi-agent system distributed over a …

VirtualHome: Building Socially Intelligent Agents via Simulation
… progress has been made in building autonomous agents that can help us at complex tasks, these have typically been studied in isolated environments. To build agents that can be deployed in the real world, we need to study them in more human-centric settings, where they can interact with other …

Generating narrative through intelligent agents in digital games
An ongoing problem in game design is how to create story-based games that allow the player to have a variety of experiences if the game is played more than once, preferably without burdening the designer with a prohibitive workload. In this project, I approach the problem of creating a game with a …

A mathematical formulation of intelligent agents and their activities
… more closely. To model the components, we choose intelligent agents because these represent a simple yet effective paradigm for capturing complex behaviour with simple rules. We provide several representations for the agents, each of which enables us to model a different aspect of their behaviour. …

Discovering and Engineering the Computation Underlying Large Intelligent Agents
The richness of language and intelligent behavior has often been attributed to latent compositional structure. Can we build tools for discovering how deep networks learn and represent this latent structure implicitly? And more importantly, can we use this knowledge to improve generalization in …

Gaining Perspective with an Evolutionary Cognitive Architecture for Intelligent Agents
… how it can practically be applied to physical intelligent agents is explored. Some core components that make up what a potentially strong AI system must possess are identified and outlined as basic task completion, exploration, scalability, noise reduction, generalization, memory, and …

An investigation into the use, application and evaluation of intelligent agents
… linked by the theme of the application of intelligent agents. The first project covers the development of RAPIDO, a rapid prototyping toolkit for the development and evaluation of agent applications. The papers and technical reports included for this project look at the implementation and …

Conversational Agent: Developing a Model for Intelligent Agents with Transient Emotional States
<p>The demonstration of aggressive behaviors in the workplace can usually lead to negative professional consequences. However, combat-related professions may involve life and death decision making on an almost daily basis. This is one occupational area in which major duties may invoke or even …

A Creative Exploration of the Use of Intelligent Agents in Spatial Narrative Structures
… usability design heuristics. The intersection of intelligent agents and spatial narrative structures provide a future scenario by which to assess the suitability of the approach outlined in this study.

Application of hybrid intelligent agents to modelling a dynamic, locally interacting retail market
The emergence of agent-based modelling from the field of artificial intelligence (Al) presents a new and alternative approach to geographical modelling. The vast potential offered by agent-based models in representing distributed complex systems, coupled with the increase in available computing …

A Bayesian Network Approach to the Self-organization and Learning in Intelligent Agents
… and learning is introduced for use with intelligent agents. Bayesian networks, with the help of influence diagrams, are employed to create a decision-theoretic intelligent agent. Influence diagrams combine both Bayesian networks and utility theory. In this research, an intelligent agent …

Designing and testing an experimental framework of affective intelligent agents in healthcare training simulations
… to investigate how emotionally enabled virtual agents (VAs) in healthcare provision training simulations allow for a more effective level of understanding on how an emotionally enhanced scenario can affect different aspects of learning. This is achieved by developing virtual agents that respond …

Examining Electronic Markets in Which Intelligent Agents Are Used for Comparison Shopping and Dynamic Pricing
… The Internet lends itself to the use of agents to work on behalf of buyers and sellers. Through simulation, this research examines different implementations of buyers' agents (shopbots) and sellers' agents (pricebots) so that buyers, sellers, and agent builders can capitalize on the …

The Effects of System Transparency and Reliability on Drivers' Perception and Performance Towards Intelligent Agents in Level 3 Automated Vehicles
… automated vehicles, transparency of in-vehicle intelligent agents (IVIAs) is an important contributor to drivers' perception, situation awareness (SA), and driving performance. However, the effects of agent transparency on driver performance when the agent is unreliable have not been fully …

Ανίχνευση και εξόρυξη οικονομικών και εμπορικών πληροφοριών, από τα δεδομένα διαδικτύου με χρήση "ευφυών μέσων" (intelligent agents), και παρουσίαση αυτών των πληροφοριών στους χρήστες με χρήση κινητών συσκευών
… και περιεχομένου όπως οι ευφυείς διαμεσολαβητές (intelligent agents). Μαζί με τα ανωτέρω, εξετάζονται αλγόριθμοι ανάκτησης γνώσης από πολύ μεγάλους όγκους δεδομένων, αναπαριστάμενων υπό την μορφή οντολογιών και δενδρικών δομών υπό την έννοια ταξινομημένων γράφων, βάσει πιο κλασσικών μεθοδολογιών …

Fully moral artificial agents: future or fiction
… that includes the development of Artificially Intelligent agents (AI) for various purposes. The extensive progress in AI has reached a point where the introduction of AI agents as android robots or humanoids into society is plausible. This highlights the evolving relationship between humans and …

Designing child robot interaction for facilitating creative learning
… to machines. To be successful in this world of intelligent agents, we must empower children not only to understand how these intelligent agents work, but also to be able to think creatively about generating new artifacts in consort with such agents, which requires imaginative novel thought.

Multiple Criteria Decision Making in Application Layer Networks
… work is concerned with the conduct of MCDM by intelligent agents trading commodities in ALNs. These agents consider trustworthiness in their course of negotiation and select offers with respect to product price and seller reputation.
