Multi-agent opportunism
… with uncertainty; and prone to rapid change. Agents operating in a real-world domain need to be capable of dealing with the unexpected events that will occur as they carry out their tasks. While unexpected events are often related to failures in an agent's plan, or inaccurate knowledge in an …

Hopscotch: Robust Multi-agent Search
… divisible, it is natural to consider the use of multi-robot teams to accomplish the search task. An important topic of research in this area is the division of the task among robot agents. Interrelated with subtask assignment is failure handling, in the sense that, when an agent fails, its part …

Model checking multi-agent systems
A multi-agent system (MAS) is usually understood as a system composed of interacting autonomous agents. In this sense, MAS have been employed successfully as a modelling paradigm in a number of scenarios, especially in Computer Science. However, the process of modelling complex and heterogeneous …

Approaches to multi-agent learning
Systems involving multiple autonomous entities are becoming more and more prominent. Sensor networks, teams of robotic vehicles, and software agents are just a few examples. In order to design these systems, we need methods that allow our agents to autonomously learn and adapt to the changing …

Intent Recognition in Multi-Agent Domains
… be capable of performing intent recognition in multi-agent settings, both in terms of recognizing low-level intentions for individual agents, and of recognizing coordinated agents of multiple agents. This is because in real-world domains, it is rare to be performing tasks which require intent …

Bayesian learning for multi-agent coordination
Multi-agent systems draw together a number of significant trends in modern technology: ubiquity, decentralisation, openness, dynamism and uncertainty. As work in these fields develops, such systems face increasing challenges. Two particular challenges are decision making in uncertain and …

Abstraction Hierarchies for Multi-Agent Pathfinding
<p>Multi-Agent Pathfinding is an NP-Complete search problem with a branching factor that is exponential in the number of agents. Because of this exponential feature, it can be difficult to solve optimally using traditional search techniques, even for relatively small problems. Many recent optimal …

Reliable *Control of Multi-Agent *Systems
… semiautonomous and autonomous solutions to multi-agent problems. We first utilize the concept of input-to-state stability to address the problem of semiautonomous control of multi-agent systems, and show that stability of the system is maintained in the presence of unreliable communication …

Minimalist multi-agent filtering and guidance
Advances in technology have allowed robots to be equipped with powerful sensors, complex actuators, computers with high processing capabilities, and high bandwidth communication links. This trend has enabled the development of sophisticated algorithms and systems to solve tasks such as navigation, …

Neural diversity in multi-agent learning
… lack of work studying behavioural diversity in multi-agent learning is due to traditional approaches constraining the agents' strategies to be identical. This speeds up learning by training a shared policy from all individuals' experiences, but results in the agents becoming behaviourally …

Visual recognition of multi-agent action
… representation and recognition of coordinated multi-agent action from noisy perceptual data. The thesis of this work is as follows: highly structured, multi-agent action can be recognized from noisy perceptual data using visually grounded goal-based primitives and low-order temporal …

Multi-agent coordination under limited communication
… that can reason about communication between agents. In multi-agent coordination problems, different agents have different beliefs about the state of the world that can eventually be reconciled if the agents are able to share sufficient information with one another. When communication is …

Dialogue-driven Multi-Agent Activity Planning
… is to build a general-purpose system with multiple agents that can perform a wide range of tasks based on specifications provided in natural language. This work presents a novel dialogue-driven activity planning framework for multiagent scenarios. We present a method that accepts commands …

Traffic State Estimation with Multi-Agent Simulations
Die vorliegende Dissertation beschreibt ein neuartiges Verfahren zur gänzlich disaggregierten Nachführung des Mobilitätsverhaltens von Autofahrern auf Grundlage aggregierter Messungen von Verkehrsflüssen, -dichten oder -geschwindigkeiten, welche durch eine begrenzte Anzahl von Sensoren im Netzwerk …

Multi-agent Coordination Algorithms for Pursuit-Evasion
The real-world application of multi-agent systems (MAS) is still challenging and limited, despite the exclusive advantage of MAS over single agent systems. The multi-agent coordination or swarm intelligence is a paramount concern. Based on pursuit-evasion games, this thesis investigates the safe …

Multi-agent Communication Protocols with Emergent Behaviour
The emergent behaviour of a multiagent system depends on the component agents and how they interact. A critical part of interaction between agents is communication. This thesis presents a multi-agent system communication model for physical moving agents. The work presented in this thesis provides …
