A meritocratic trust-based group formation in an IoT environment for smart cities
35
TL;DR: A group formation algorithm capable to asymptotically maximize the social capital is proposed, which highlights two main features: (i) the computed solution is a Nash equilibrium in the considered game and (ii) the only rewarded agents are those having the most correct behaviors.

On the logic of theory change: Partial meet contraction and revision functions
TL;DR: In this article, the authors extend earlier work by its authors on formal aspects of the processes of contracting a theory to eliminate a proposition and revising it to introduce a new proposition.

TL;DR: It is shown that BP can only converge to a fixed point that is also a stationary point of the Bethe approximation to the free energy, which enables connections to be made with variational approaches to approximate inference.

Negotiation as a Metaphor for Distributed Problem Solving
Randall Davis,Reid G. Smith +1 more
TL;DR: A framework called the contract net is presented that specifies communication and control in a distributed problem solver, and comparisons with planner, conniver, hearsay-ii, and pup 6 are used to demonstrate that negotiation is a natural extension to the transfer of control mechanisms used in earlier problem-solving systems.

TL;DR: This thesis presents an approximation technique that can perform Bayesian inference faster and more accurately than previously possible, and is found to be convincingly better than rival approximation techniques: Monte Carlo, Laplace's method, and variational Bayes.
