Contributes tools and techniques to create physical multiagent systems (MAS) in domains where each agent has insufficient capabilities for solving the problem alone. This book's contibutions address the problem of league-independent solutions and provide means to create more generally applicable approaches.
This book is concerned with behaviour monitoring and interpretation with regard to two main areas of focus: the investigation of motion patterns and ambient assisted living. It presents state-of-the-art contributions on research in both these areas. The first section consists of chapters discussing recent developments in monitoring and representing behaviours, with a particular focus on movement-based behaviour. It includes: methods for monitoring and analysing pedestrian motion behaviours; typical motion patterns of single people and groups of people. In particular, a number of qualitative spatial representations are presented for describing patterns topologically and ordinally. The next pa...
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 7th International Conference on Geographic Information Science, GIScience 2012, held in Columbus, OH, USA in September 2012. The 26 full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 57 submissions. While the traditional research topics are well reflected in the papers, emerging topics that involve new research hot-spots such as cyber infrastructure, big data, web-based computing also occupy a significant portion of the volume.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 9th Pacific Rim International Conference on Artificial Intelligence, PRICAI 2006, held in Guilin, China in August 2006. The book presents 81 revised full papers and 87 revised short papers together with 3 keynote talks. The papers are organized in topical sections on intelligent agents, automated reasoning, machine learning and data mining, natural language processing and speech recognition, computer vision, perception and animation, and more.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed postproceedings of the International Conference on Spatial Cognition 2004 held in Fauenchiemsee, Germany in October 2004. The 27 revised full papers presented were carefully reviewed and selected from 50 submissions. The papers are organized in topical sections on route directions, wayfinding, and spatial behaviour; description of space, prepositions and reference; meta-models, diagrams, and maps; spatial-temporal representation and reasoning; and robot mapping and piloting.
This book constitutes the thoroughly refereed post-proceedings of the 21st International Conference on Inductive Logic Programming, ILP 2011, held in Windsor Great Park, UK, in July/August 2011. The 24 revised full papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 66 submissions. Also included are five extended abstracts and three invited talks. The papers represent the diversity and vitality in present ILP research including ILP theory, implementations, probabilistic ILP, biological applications, sub-group discovery, grammatical inference, relational kernels, learning of Petri nets, spatial learning, graph-based learning, and learning of action models.
This book constitutes the seventh official archival publication devoted to RoboCup. It documents the achievements presented at the 7th Robot World Cup Soccer and Rescue Competition and Conferences held in Padua, Italy, in July 2003. The 39 revised full papers and 35 revised poster papers presented together with an overview and roadmap for the RoboCup initiative and 3 invited papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 125 symposium paper submissions. This book is mandatory reading for the rapidly growing RoboCup community as well as a valuable source of reference and inspiration for R&D professionals interested in robotics, distributed artificial intelligence, and multi-agent systems.
This book constitutes the refereed proceedings of the 36th Annual German Conference on Artificial Intelligence, KI 2013, held in Koblenz, Germany, in September 2013. The 24 revised full papers presented together with 8 short papers were carefully reviewed and selected from 70 submissions. The papers contain research results on theory and applications of all aspects of AI.
