Hierarchic Social Entropy: An Information Theoretic Measure of Robot Group Diversity
As research expands in multiagent intelligent systems, investigators need new tools for evaluating the artificial societies they study. It is impossible, for example, to correlate heterogeneity with performance in multiagent robotics without a quantitative metric of diversity. Currently diversity is evaluated on a bipolar scale with systems classified as either heterogeneous or homogeneous, dep...
متن کاملA Hierarchic Architecture for Conceptual Information Retrieval
Conceptual retrieval returns information related to a speci c topic but not restricted to a query term A common approach is to compare the query with all the documents in the database When the number of documents is large the searching time becomes signi cant In this paper we propose a hierarchic architecture which integrates latent semantic indexing LSI and hierarchic agglomerative clustering ...
متن کاملAn Information-Based Measure for Grouping Quality
Grouping is an essential process of computer vision. However, measurement of grouping results is not straightforward and is often heuristic. We propose here a method for measuring grouping quality which is based on the following observation: the grouping result provides some information about the true, unknown grouping and reduces its uncertainty. This uncertainty is evaluated by the number of ...
متن کاملAn Information Theoretic Measure for Robot Expressivity
This paper presents a principled way to think about articulated movement for artificial agents and a measurement of platforms that produce such movement. In particular, in human-facing scenarios, the shape evolution of robotic platforms will become essential in creating systems that integrate – and communicate – with human counterparts. This paper provides a tool to measure the expressive capac...
متن کاملGeneric Hierarchic Object Models and Classification Based on Probabilistic PCA
In this paper we tackle the problem of classifying objects, which are not known to the system but similar to some of the objects contained in the training set. This type of classification is referred to as generic object modeling and recognition and is necessary for applications were it is impossible to model all occurring objects. As no class for unknown objects exist, they are either rejected...
