Discovery of Emergent Natural Laws by Hierarchical Multi-Agent Systems

چکیده
This paper defines an approach to simulation of natural systems, inspired by complex systems theory. A complex natural system is modeled as a multi-agent simulation system, agents representing living organisms, physical entities or environmental processes. Agents and their interactions can be aggregated to higher-level group agents. The properties and behavior of these group agents are determined by, or emerge from, the properties and behavior of the individual agents composing the group. Group agents discover macro-level natural laws implied by the properties and behavior of individual agents modeling micro-level natural entities. Such a system can be implemented in a distributed programming environment, exploiting emergence, hierarchy, and concurrency to perform large-scale simulations.

Image enhancement - An emergent pattern formation approach via decentralised multi-agent systems
A multi-agent framework inspired by natural and physical systems is presented for data discovery and image enhancement. The input image is represented as a topographic landscape upon which a large population of independent simple, reactive, mobile agents resides. The local landscape configuration presents stimuli to each agent, influencing agent behaviour and resulting in changes in agent orien...
متن کاملInteractive Computational Systems: Rough Granular Approach
The aim of this paper is to present a step toward building computational models for interactive systems. Such computations are performed in an integrated distributed environments on objects of different kinds of complexity, called here as information granules. The computations are progressing by interactions among information granules and physical objects. We distinguish global and local comput...
متن کاملModeling Lateral Communication in Holonic Multi Agent Systems
Agents, in a multi agent system, communicate with each other through the process of exchanging messages which is called dialogue. Multi agent organization is generally used to optimize agents’ communications. Holonic organization demonstrates a self-similar recursive and hierarchical structure in which each holon may include some other holons. In a holonic system, lateral communication occurs b...
متن کاملPolicies and Emergent Behaviour Policies and Emergent Behaviour
A major current challenge in the area of complex multi-agent systems is the conceptual approach to, and practical treatment of, emergent behaviour. This paper indicates how Formal Methods may be applied to engineer multi-agent adaptive systems exhibiting emergence, by consideration of an ‘emergence predicate’ in the specification and the incremental derivation of interacting components that ach...
متن کاملCompetitive-Cooperative Automated Reasoning from Distributed and Multiple Source of Data
Knowledge extraction from distributed database systems, have been investigated during past decade in order to analyze billions of information records. In this work a competitive deduction approach in a heterogeneous data grid environment is proposed using classic data mining and statistical methods. By applying a game theory concept in a multi-agent model, we tried to design a policy for hierar...
