Collective Intelligence for Anonymous Systems

In this paper we propose to use some of the tools provided by the Distributed Artificial Intelligence (DAI), in particular Artificial Ant Colony Systems, building anonymous systems that have the virtue of having acceptable levels of Anonymity at a low cost. This cost refers to the performance criteria typically used in the process of routing telecommunications systems, such as response times (l...

SmallBlue: Unlock Collective Intelligence from Information Flows in Social Networks

People rely on a personal network of friends and colleagues to get trusted information; help filter and interpret information; and get referrals to other people. Moreover, organizations depend on their members finding and sharing tacit knowledge to be informed, to avoid duplication of effort, and to innovate. Finding the hidden connections in any organization and understanding information flows...

Collective Intelligence

Many systems of self-interested agents have an associated performance criterion that rates the dynamic behavior of the overall system. This paper presents an introduction to the science of such systems. Formally, this paper concerns collectives, which are defined as any system having the following two characteristics: First, the system must contain one or more agents each of which we view as tr...

Artificial Intelligence and Collective Intelligence

The vision of artificial intelligence (AI) is often manifested through an autonomous software module (agent) in a complex and uncertain environment. The agent is capable of thinking ahead and acting for long periods of time in accordance with its goals/objectives. It is also capable of learning and refining its understanding of the world. The agent may accomplish this based on its own experienc...
