Motivating the Imputation of Agent Cognition
نویسندگان
چکیده
A cognitive model of an agent or a multi-agent system greatly enhances high-level human interaction with engineered systems. Modern work on “BDI agents” emphasizes explicit representation of cognitive attributes in the design and construction of an agent, but there are several circumstances in which this approach cannot yield the desired perspicuity, including fine-grained agents without explicit internal representation of cognitive attributes, agents whose inner structures are not accessible, and the emergent properties of swarms of interacting agents of any type. We propose that cognition can legitimately be imputed externally to a system irrespective of its internal structure, and we demonstrate this notion in examples, including swarm-based emergent path planning for unpiloted vehicles.

Effect of Reference Population Size and Imputation Methods on the Accuracy of Imputation in Pure and Mixed Populations
Imputation as a method of creating low-density chips to high-density chips has been introduced to increase the accuracy of genomic selection in animals. In the current study, to investing imputation accuracy, three populations of mixed (scenario 1), pure (scenario 2) and mixed + pure (scenario 3) were simulated using QMSim. Two methods of imputation including Beagle and Flmpute were used fo...

Imputation is one of the most common methods to reduce item non_response effects. Imputation results in a complete data set, and then it is possible to use naϊve estimators. After using most of common imputation methods, mean and total (imputation estimators) are still unbiased. However their variances (imputation variances) are underestimated by naϊve variance estimators. Sampling mechanism an...
متن کاملImputation of parent-offspring trios and their effect on accuracy of genomic prediction using Bayesian method
The objective of this study was to evaluate the imputation accuracy of parent-offspring trios under different scenarios. By using simulated datasets, the performance Bayesian LASSO in genomic prediction was also examined. The genome consisted of 5 chromosomes and each chromosome was set as 1 Morgan length. The number of SNPs per chromosome was 10000. One hundred QTLs were randomly distributed a...
متن کاملAccuracy evaluation of different statistical and geostatistical censored data imputation approaches (Case study: Sari Gunay gold deposit)
Most of the geochemical datasets include missing data with different portions and this may cause a significant problem in geostatistical modeling or multivariate analysis of the data. Therefore, it is common to impute the missing data in most of geochemical studies. In this study, three approaches called half detection (HD), multiple imputation (MI), and the cosimulation based on Markov model 2...
متن کاملEstimation of genotype imputation accuracy using reference populations with varying degrees of relationship and marker density panel
Genotype imputation from low-density to high-density (SNP) chips is an important step before applying genomic selection, because denser chips can provide more reliable genomic predictions. In the current research, the accuracy of genotype imputation from low and moderate-density panels (5K and 50K) to high-density panels in the purebred and crossbred populations was assessed. The simulated popu...
