Multiissue negotiations present opportunities for tradeoffs that create gains for one or more parties without causing any party to be worse off. The literature suggests that parties are often unable to identify and capitalize on such trades. We present a Negotiation Support System, called NEGOTIATION ASSISTANT, that enables negotiators to analyze their own preferences and provides a structured negotiation process to help parties move toward optimal trades. The underlying model is based on a multiattribute ...

Motivated by circumstances with severe computational resource limits (e.g., settings with strong constraints on memory or communication), this paper addresses the problem of concisely representing and processing information for estimation and planning tasks. In this paper, conciseness is a measure of explicit representational complexity: for filtering, we are concerned with maintaining as little state as possible to perform a given task; for the planning case, we wish to generate the plan graph (or ...

We examine the problem of target tracking whilst simultaneously preserving the target’s privacy as epitomized by the robotic panda-tracking scenario, which O’Kane introduced at the 2008 Workshop on the Algorithmic Foundations of Robotics to elegantly illustrate the utility of ignorance. The present paper reconsiders his formulation and the tracking strategy he proposed, along with its completeness. We explore how the capabilities of the robot and panda affect the feasibility of tracking with a privacy ...

Producing a methodology that is able to predict output using a model is a well studied area in Computational Intelligence (CI). However, a number of real-world applications require a model but have little or no data available of the specific environment. Predominantly, standard machine learning approaches focus on a need for training data for such models to come from the same domain as the target task. Such restrictions can severely reduce the data acquisition making it extremely costly, or in certain ...

The cognitive processes in a widely used, nonverbal test of analytic intelligence, the Raven Progressive Matrices Test (Raven, 1962), are analyzed in terms of which processes distinguish between higher scoring and lower scoring subjects and which processes are common to all subjects and all items on the test. The analysis is based on detailed performance characteristics, such as verbal protocols, eye-fixation patterns, and errors. The theory is expressed as a pair of computer simulation models that ...

We consider the problem of multi-robot task-allocation when robots have to deal with uncertain utility estimates. Typically an allocation is performed to maximize expected utility; we consider a means for measuring the robustness of a given optimal allocation when robots have some measure of the uncertainty (e.g. a probability distribution, or moments of such distributions). We introduce the interval Hungarian algorithm, a new algorithm that extends the classic Kuhn—Munkres Hungarian algorithm to ...

Abstract Shell [Syst Eng 4 (2001), 58–75] raised the issue of requirements “completeness,” concluding that its proof is not possible. This communication is intended to clarify the original intent of the assertion and identify a set of conditions under which completeness may be verified. © 2001 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

This paper considers multirobot task allocation problems where the estimated costs for performing tasks are interrelated, and the overall team objective need not be a standard sum-of-costs (or utilities) model, enabling straightforward treatment of the additional costs incurred by resource contention. In the model we introduce, a team may choose one of a set of shared resources to perform a task (e.g., several routes to reach a destination), and interference is modeled when multiple robots use the ...

In this paper, the authors propose a new steganographic scheme based on vector quantisation (VQ) and search-order coding (SOC). The capacity of the proposed scheme is higher than others based on VQ and the quality of stego-image is acceptive. In general, the capacity of the schemes based on VQ is usually 1-bit per block. In 2004, Yu et al. proposed a scheme to increase the capacity to 3-bit per pair of blocks. In the proposed scheme, the authors utilised multiple codebooks and chose the combinations ...

The paper describes the modeling of a user's conceptual knowledge in the general user modeling shell system BGP‐MS. On the one hand, BGP‐MS is a workbench for the develment of a user model in a particular application domain. It supports the definition of the architecture of the individual user model, and of the architecture and the contents of user stereotypes. A rich representation language for conceptual knowledge, a partition mechanism, and flexible graphics‐based interfaces are at the disposal ...

I discuss the semantics and syntax of a phenomenon often called lexical subordination and here called conflation, in which a VP with a single verb expresses both an activity and a result predication, although only the former is licensed by the verb's permanent lexical entry. Alongside standard cases such as resultatives and particle verbs, I discuss what I call event-path structures in English and German. In these, an activity is argued to conflate with a predication expressing a (sometimes metaphoric) ...

Computational thinking and creative thinking are valuable tools both within and outside of computer science (CS). The goal of the project discussed here is to increase students' achievement in CS courses through a series of computational creativity exercises (CCEs). In this paper, the framework of CCEs is described, and the results of two separate studies on their impact on student achievement are presented. Students in introductory CS courses completed CCEs as part of those courses. Students in Study ...

We propose to impose symmetry in neural network parameters to improve parameter usage and make use of dedicated convolution and matrix multiplication routines. Due to the significant reduction in the number of parameters as a result of the symmetry constraints, one would expect a dramatic drop in accuracy. Surprisingly, we show that this is not the case, and, depending on network size, symmetry can have little or no negative effect on network accuracy, especially in deep overparameterized networks. ...

We demonstrate manipulation of objects using the dynamics of a rope-like structure attached to a mobile robot as a passive tail. Three challenges arise in modeling and planning: the physics involved is nontrivial, the tail is underactuated, and motions of the object are nondeterministic. For such systems, some actions are well characterized by a simplified motion model (e.g., for dragging objects), but we resort to data-driven methods for others (e.g., striking motions). A sampling-based motion planner, ...

Robot localization is the problem of determining a robot's pose in an environment, typically within a given map or a similar representation. Different methods have been proposed to address this localization problem for robots with limited sensing. In this letter, we present a localization method for a robot equipped with only a contact sensor and a clock. We make the limits of localization accuracy precise by establishing the fundamental limits imposed by symmetry as revealed by the robot's sensors. ...

By their very nature, Intelligent Environments (IE's) are infused with complexity, unreliability and uncertainty due to a combination of sensor noise and the human element. The quantity, type and availability of data to model these applications can be a major issue. Each situation is contextually different and constantly changing. The dynamic nature of the implementations present a challenging problem when attempting to model or learn a model of the environment. Training data to construct the model ...

The jet engine is an example of a complex system that periodically requires repair or restoration. This paper discusses how the Weibull process, a non-homogenous Poisson process, can be used as a new approach in modeling jet engine life. The Weibull process can be a very useful tool in modeling repairable systems. The removal characteristics are estimated by collecting actual field data based on the engine age and operating environment. The process parameters are estimated using methodology that ...
