Multi-agent actor-critic with time dynamical opponent model

Olga Fink

In multi-agent reinforcement learning, multiple agents learn simultaneously while interacting with a common environment and each other. Since the agents adapt their policies during learning, not only the behavior of a single agent becomes non-stationary, b ...

Multi-agent Learning with Privacy Guarantees

Elsa Rizk

A multi-agent system consists of a collection of decision-making or learning agents subjected to streaming observations from some real-world phenomenon. The goal of the system is to solve some global learning or optimization problem in a distributed or dec ...

Caching and Neutrality

Aikaterini Argyraki, Pavlos Nikolopoulos, Muhammad Abdullah

We are used to defining network neutrality as absence of traffic differentiation, like policing or shaping. These mechanisms, however, are often not what determines end-users’ quality of experience (QoE). Most content today is accessed through edge caches, ...

Interspecies interactions determine growth dynamics of biopolymer- degrading populations in microbial communities

Martin Ackermann

Microbial communities perform essential ecosystem functions such as the remineralization of organic carbon that exists as biopolymers. The first step in mineralization is performed by biopolymer degraders, which harbor enzymes that can break down polymers ...

Model Predictive Control for Multi-Agent Systems under Limited Communication and Time-Varying Network Topology

Melanie Nicole Zeilinger, Danilo Saccani

In control system networks, reconfiguration of the controller when agents are leaving or joining the network is still an open challenge, in particular when operation constraints that depend on each agent's behavior must be met. Drawing our motivation from ...

Scalable Multi-agent Coordination and Resource Sharing

Panayiotis Danassis

A plethora of real world problems consist of a number of agents that interact, learn, cooperate, coordinate, and compete with others in ever more complex environments. Examples include autonomous vehicles, robotic agents, intelligent infrastructure, IoT de ...

Graph signal processing tailored for subgraph focus and community structure

Miljan Petrovic

Community structure in graph-modeled data appears in a range of disciplines that comprise network science. Its importance relies on the influence it bears on other properties of graphs such as resilience, or prediction of missing connections. Nevertheless, ...

Geoinformation Harvesting From Social Media Data: A community remote sensing approach

Devis Tuia

As unconventional sources of geoinformation, massive imagery and text messages from open platforms and social media form a temporally quasi-seamless, spatially multiperspective stream, but with unknown and diverse quality. Due to its complementarity to rem ...

Visual Scene Understanding for Transportation: From Detecting Objects To Relationships

George Adaimi

Transportation, which deals with moving people and goods around, has a clear impact on the economic development of our society and our well-being. Traditionally, transportation was studied and analyzed using expensive sensors, such as induction loops, that ...

On the Scalability of Vision-based Drone Swarms in the Presence of Occlusions

Dario Floreano, Fabian Maximilian Schilling, Enrica Soria

Vision-based drone swarms have recently emerged as a promising alternative to address the fault-tolerance and flexibility limitations of centralized and communication-based aerial collective systems. Although most vision-based control algorithms rely on th ...

How to support teachers to carry out educational robotics activities in school? The case of Roteco, the Swiss robotic teacher community

Melissa Anne Skweres, Sophia Reyes Mury

The development of 21st-century transversal competences such as communication, cooperation, and creativity as well as computational thinking and programming may be aided through educational robotics (ER). Different countries have inserted ER in their schoo ...

No-regret learning in games with noisy feedback: Faster rates and adaptivity via learning rate separation

Volkan Cevher, Ya-Ping Hsieh, Kimon Antonakopoulos

We examine the problem of regret minimization when the learner is involved in a continuous game with other optimizing agents: in this case, if all players follow a no-regret algorithm, it is possible to achieve significantly lower regret relative to fully ...

A kernel‐based change detection method to map shifts in phytoplankton communities measured by flow cytometry

Automated, ship-board flow cytometers provide high-resolution maps of phytoplankton composition over large swaths of the world's oceans. They therefore pave the way for understanding how environmental conditions shape community structure. Identification of ...

Group testing for connected communities

Christina Fragouli, Suhas Diggavi, Pavlos Nikolopoulos

In this paper, we propose algorithms that leverage a known community structure to make group testing more efficient. We consider a population organized in disjoint communities: each individual participates in a community, and its infection probability depe ...
