Data Mining and Multi agent Integration aims to re?ect state of the art research and development of agent mining interaction and integration (for short, agent min ing). The book was motivated by increasing interest and work in the agents data min ing, and vice versa. The interaction and integration comes about from the intrinsic challenges faced by agent technology and data mining respectively; for instance, multi agent systems face the problem of enhancing agent learning capability, and avoiding the uncertainty of self organization and intelligence emergence. Data min ing, if integrated into agent systems, can greatly enhance the learning skills of agents, and assist agents with predication of future states, thus initiating follow up action or intervention. The data mining community is now struggling with mining distributed, interactive and heterogeneous data sources. Agents can be used to man age such data sources for data access, monitoring, integration, and pattern merging from the infrastructure, gateway, message passing and pattern delivery perspectives. These two examples illustrate the potential of agent mining in handling challenges in respective communities. There is an excellent opportunity to create innovative, dual agent mining interac tion and integration technology, tools and systems which will deliver results in one new technology.

Multi-agent system (MAS) is an expanding field in science and engineering. It merges classical fields like game theory with modern ones like machine learning and computer science. This book provides a succinct introduction to the subject, covering the theoretical fundamentals as well as the latter developments in a coherent and clear manner. The book is centred on practical applications rather than introductory topics. Although it occasionally makes reference to the concepts involved, it will do so primarily to clarify real-world applications. The inner chapters cover a wide spectrum of issues related to MAS uses, which include collision avoidance, automotive applications, evacuation simulation, emergence analyses, cooperative control, context awareness, data (image) mining, resilience enhancement and the management of a single-user multi-robot.

This volume contains the papers selected for presentation at the 2010 Inter- tionalConference onActiveMedia Technology(AMT2010),jointlyheldwiththe 2010 International Conference on Brain Informatics (BI 2010), at York Univ- sity, Toronto, Canada, during August 28-30, 2010. Organized by the Web Int- ligence Consortium (WIC) and IEEE Computational Intelligence Society Task Force on Brain Informatics (IEEE-CIS TF-BI), this conference was the sixth in the AMT series since its debut conference at Hong Kong Baptist University in 2001 (followed by AMT 2004 in Chongqing, China, AMT 2005 in Kagawa, Japan, AMT 2006 in Brisbane, Australia, AMT 2009 in Beijing, China). Active media technology (AMT) is a new area of research and development in intelligent information technology and computer science. It emphasizes the proactive, adaptive and seamless roles of interfaces and systems as well as new media in all aspects of digital life. Over the past few years, we have witnessed rapiddevelopmentsofAMT technologiesandapplicationsrangingfrombusiness and communication to entertainment and learning. Examples include Facebook, Twitter, Flickr, YouTube, Moodle, Club Penguinand GoogleLatitude. Such - velopmentshavegreatlychangedourlivesbyenhancingthewaywecommunicate and do business.

th Welcome to the proceedings of the 10 International Conference on Intelligent Virtual Agents (IVA), held 20-22 September, 2010 in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, USA. Intelligent Virtual Agents are interactive characters that exhibit human-like qualities and communicate with humans or with each other using natural human modalities such as behavior, gesture, and speech. IVAs are capable of real-time perception, cognition, and action that allow them to participate in a dynamic physical and social environment. IVA 2010 is an interdisciplinary annual conference and the main forum for prese- ing research on modeling, developing, and evaluating Intelligent Virtual Agents with a focus on communicative abilities and social behavior. The development of IVAs - quires expertise in multimodal interaction and several AI fields such as cognitive modeling, planning, vision, and natural language processing. Computational models are typically based on experimental studies and theories of human-human and hum- robot interaction; conversely, IVA technology may provide interesting lessons for these fields. Visualizations of IVAs require computer graphics and animation te- niques, and in turn supply significant realism problem domains for these fields. The realization of engaging IVAs is a challenging task, so reusable modules and tools are of great value. The fields of application range from robot assistants, social simulation, and tutoring to games and artistic exploration. The enormous challenges and diversity of possible applications of IVAs have - sulted in an established annual conference.

Scientific Essay from the year 2014 in the subject Computer Science - Applied, grade: A, University of North Texas (Department of Computer Science), course: Distributed and Parallel Databases, language: English, abstract: With the increase in the usage of databases in various fields and domains, to overcome the challenges in a centralized data mining environment, more and more databases are distributed in networks. The objective of distributed data mining is to perform data mining operations based on the type and availability of distributed resources. To make a proper choice of a particular DDM system/model, the basic differences between each of them must be understood. This paper produces a survey of some of the DDM systems available. It mainly focusses on the homogeneous DDM models. It discusses methods based on semantic web and grid, multi-agent, mobile agent and i-Analyst. A hybrid method AGrIP is also discussed. A comparative analysis is made considering different key issues of DDM. Each method is described in detail by its method/algorithm.

This book explores an approach to social robotics based solely on autonomous unsupervised techniques and positions it within a structured exposition of related research in psychology, neuroscience, HRI, and data mining. The authors present an autonomous and developmental approach that allows the robot to learn interactive behavior by imitating humans using algorithms from time-series analysis and machine learning. The first part provides a comprehensive and structured introduction to time-series analysis, change point discovery, motif discovery and causality analysis focusing on possible applicability to HRI problems. Detailed explanations of all the algorithms involved are provided with open-source implementations in MATLAB enabling the reader to experiment with them. Imitation and simulation are the key technologies used to attain social behavior autonomously in the proposed approach. Part two gives the reader a wide overview of research in these areas in psychology, and ethology. Based on this background, the authors discuss approaches to endow robots with the ability to autonomously learn how to be social. Data Mining for Social Robots will be essential reading for graduate students and practitioners interested in social and developmental robotics.
