BotSpot Categories Knowledge Bots  (Page 1) Agent Based Computational Engines Agent based computational engines are intended to replace current numerical methods used for the computation of flows, together with their associated advection, diffusion and dispersion processes, and the chemical, biological and other superstructures that are constructed upon these hydrodynamic foundations. The present work will investigate the feasibility of constructing these engines using societies of intelligent agents in the manner that has already been researched in some other disciplines, and notably in individual-based ecological models. Agent Based Digital Library Infrastructure Project The aim of this SICS Intelligent System Laboratory project is to create a Virtual Community Library (VCL) where each user has a personal library and, at the same time, is part of a larger community consisting of other users' personal libraries and, through intermediators, other digital libraries. In the architecture a digital library is seen as a decentralized collection of interacting self-interested agents where an agent represents the knowledge and interests of an individual user. Each agent is perceived as a personal digital library serving one individual user (or other information source). Agentsheets & VisualAgenTalk Agentsheets is an agent-based spreadsheet enabling a wide range of end users, ranging from children to professionals, to create their own SimCity(tm) like interactive simulations, domain-oriented visual programming languages, knowbots, cellular automata and games. At the blink of an eye these simulations can be compiled by the Ristretto compiler directly into Java applets that can be embedded into web pages. VisualAgenTalk is a new tactile programming approach that allows you to compose, comprehend and share complex agents through the World Wide Web.

Agent behaviors are described using tables, generator creates agents from this description. Agent behaviors can also be programmatically extended by changing a behavior file (source code provided) using any Java function. Intelligence can be added using intelligent processing modules in the Bits & Pixels Intelligent Agent Library. AgentX AgentX is a lightweight, high performance, scaleable, distributed computing libraries for Java that support object request broker, RMI and mobile agent services. AMASE AMASE: A Complete Agent Platform for the Wireless Mobile Communication Environment. AMASE will investigate how to enhance existing agent platforms in order to support stationary and mobile agents for the wireless mobile communication environment, and how to enable agent based mobile access to Multimedia Information Services. Artificial Intelligence Research Institute Agents Artificial Intelligence Research Institute, a center of the Spanish Scientific Research Council, has agent projects involved in problem solving, learning, communications, cooperation and negotiation: Dialogic frameworks for structured negotiation, Cooperation among agents that learn, Virtual Space Agents, and WWW interfaces for AI systems. Artificial Intelligence Research Laboratory Iowa State University Department of Computer Science's Artificial Intelligence Research Laboratory under the direction of Dr. Vasant Honavar. D'Agents D'Agents is a transportable agent system. Tcl is an embeddable scripting language that is highly portable, highly popular and freely available. Agent Tcl is part of Transportable Agents at Dartmouth College. Autonomous Agents for Intrusion Detection The Autonomous Agents for Intrusion Detection Group is composed of a number of students and faculty within the COAST Laboratory at Purdue University whose purpose is to address the problem of intrusion detection from a different angle -- instead of a monolithic Intrusion Detection System (IDS) design, they propose a distributed architecture. Their design has the advantage of scalability, efficiency, fault-tolerance, and easy configurability. Bayesian Knowledge Discoverer Bayesian Knowledge Discoverer (BKD) is a computer program able to learn Bayesian Belief Networks from (possibly incomplete) databases. BKD is based on a new estimation method called Bound and Collapse and it has been developed within the Bayesian Knowledge Discovery project. Brain Construction Kit The Brain Construction Kit is a sophisticated application for the simulation of neural networks. This neural network simulator provides an attractive graphical user interface through which neural networks may be created, trained and used to classify data. Currently the system supports Hopfield neural networks, Kohonene neural networks, Multi Layer Perceptrons using either the Backpropogation of Errors learning algorithm, or Scott Fahlman's Quickprop algorithm, and the more modern Radial Basis Function (RBF) Neural Networks architecture. All source code (Java) for the Brain Construction Kit (BCK) is supplied with the package at no cost. Caltech Infospheres Project Researching the composition of distributed active mobile objects that communicate using messages. The Caltech Infospheres Project researches compositional systems, which are systems built from interacting components. The Project is concerned with the theory and implementation of compositional systems that support peer-to-peer communication among persistent multithreaded distributed objects. CBR Agents Cooperation Case-based Reasoning (CBR) Agents Cooperation investigates several modes of cooperation among homogeneous agents with learning capabilities in a framework called federated learning. This page focuses on the cooperation among agents that learn and solve problems using Case-Based Reasoning (CBR). CLIPS CLIPS is a productive development and delivery expert system tool which provides a complete environment for the construction of rule and/or object based expert systems. CLIPS is being used by over 5,000 users throughout the public and private community including all NASA sites and branches of the military, numerous federal bureaus, government contractors, universities, and many companies. Cypress Cypress - Integrated Planning Environment is a system for defining taskable, reactive agents. At its core are mature, powerful planning and execution technologies, namely the SIPE-2 generative planner and the PRS-CL reactive execution system. DarkBot DarkBot is an UNIX/WIN32 help robot. It has a parser that enables it to match text using regular IRC wildcards for almost human-like responses. If taught well, DarkBot can be an Expert System and is also multi-lingual. DataBots A comprehensive site offering resources and papers on underlying DataBot construction and function including background information. Debriefable Agents Debriefable Agents purpose is to develop technology that enables Soar-based problem-solvers to describe and explain their problems-solving activities. This technology, implemented in a system call Debrief, enables problem- solvers to engage in a question-answer dialog, in which the user can ask the problem solver about the actions it took and the reasoning behind those actions. DESIRE Research Programme The DESIRE research programme focuses on the study of compositional multi-agent systems for complex (and often distributed) tasks and development methods for these systems. In this research programme the agent metaphor has been adopted as a point of departure: a complex task can be modeled as a composition of a number of tasks, each of which is performed by one or more agents, these agents can have the form of automated systems or human agents (users). Distributed AI, Agents and Planning A comprehensive site featuring a menu of AI, Agents and Planning/Research Information. Menu items include areas from The MIT Media Lab, Autonomous Agents Group to Agent Related Web Pages an extremely comprehensive listing of Agent based web pages. ERA Project The Environment for Reflective Agents (ERA) Project is based on three important insights. The first is the need to provide automation support to users that is easy to use as a spreadsheet marco language or a visual programming language. The second is the recognition that end user automation tasks may span from simple scripts to applications that may embody sophisticated control such as trading, mediating and other types of tasks. Finally, the third insight is that the topology of the distributed automation that users may want to deploy spans systems that are not under user's administrative control. EXCALIBUR Project EXCALIBUR Project's goal is to develop a generic architecture for autonomously operating agents, like computer guided characters/mobile/items, within a complex computer game environment. These agents have to be able to find the right actions to pursue their given goals, and adapt their behavior to new environments and opponents. IBM Aglets Workbench Programming Mobile Agents in Java.
