de Gier, J. (author), Bergmans, J. (author), Hildmann, H. (author)A generic reasoning approach for autonomous unmanned vehicle (UxV) mission execution is presented. The system distinguishes (a) mission planning and (b) mission execution, treating these as separate but closely interdependent stages. The context of the work is that of tactical military operations, and the focus of the current (simulated)...article 2023

(author)The Royal Netherlands Navy is moving towards more autonomous ships to cope with the increasingly complex naval operations while sailing with a reduced manning. The strong expansion of automation and autonomous systems on board requires new solutions for optimal collaboration between the crew and the extensive set of ship systems. We are...conference paper 2022

Kox, E.S. (author), Kerstholt, J.H. (author), Hueting, T.F. (author), de Vries, P.W. (author)Trust is a fundamental aspect of teamwork in Human-Agent Teams (HATs). Trust violations are an inevitable aspect of the cycle of trust, so effective trust repair strategies are needed to ensure durable and successful team performance. This study explores the effectiveness of four trust repair strategies. In a first-person shooter resembling HAT...conference paper 2022

(author), Yorke-Smith, N. (author)Logistics planning is a complex optimization problem involving multiple decision makers. Automated scheduling systems offer support to human planners; however state-of-the-art approaches often employ a centralized control paradigm. While these approaches have shown great value, their application is hindered in dynamic settings with no central...conference paper 2022

Parizi, M.M. (author), van Binsbergen, L.T. (author), Sileno, G. (author), van Engers, T. (author)This paper introduces a modular architecture for integrating norms in autonomous agents and multi-agent systems. As the interactions between norms and agents can be complex, this architecture utilizes multiple programmable components to model concepts such as adoption of personal and/or collective norms (possibly conflicting), interpretation and...conference paper 2022

de Gier, J.M. (author), Nijsten, L.M.J. (author), Veltman, H.J. (author), de Groot, T.H. (author)Less personnel and the introduction of more complex systems on board of future navy vessels requires innovative systems to support the crew in making optimal command decisions. These decisions should result in an allocation of available resources that maximizes the probability to achieve the set of mission goals, provided the external and...conference paper 2020

mohajeri Parizi, M. (author), Sileno, G. (author), van Engers, T. (author)Computational agents based upon the belief-desire-intention (BDI) architecture generally use reactive rules to trigger the execution of plans. For various reasons, certain plans might be preferred over others at design time. Most BDI agents platforms use hard-coding these preferences in some form of the static ordering of the reactive rules, but...conference paper 2019

Fransman, J.E. (author), Sijs, J. (author), Dol, H.S. (author), Theunissen, E. (author), de Schutter, B. (author)In this work, the novel algorithm Bayesian Dynamic Programming Optimization Procedure (B-DPOP) is presented to solve multi-agent problems within the Distributed Constraint Optimization Problem framework. The Bayesian optimization framework is used to prove convergence to the global optimum of the B-DPOP algorithm for Lipschitz-continuous...conference paper 2019

Hildmann, H. (author), Kovacs, E. (author), Saffre, F. (author), Isakovic, A.F. (author)Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAVs) with acceptable performance are becoming commercially available at an affordable cost. Due to this, the use of drones for real-time data collection is becoming common practice by individual practitioners in the areas of e.g., precision agriculture and civil defense such as fire fighting. At the same time, as UAVs...article 2019

Saffre, F. (author), Gianini, G. (author), Hildmann, H. (author), Davies, J. (author), Bullock, S. (author), Damiani, E. (author), Deneubourg, J.L. (author)We investigate the hypothesis that long-term memory in populations of agents can lead to counterproductive emergent properties at the system level. Our investigation is framed in the context of a discrete, one-dimensional road-traffic congestion model: we investigate the influence of simple cognition in a population of rational commuter agents...article 2019

van Diggelen, J. (author), Neerincx, M.A. (author), Peeters, M. (author), Schraagen, J.M. (author)Human-agent teams exhibit emergent behavior at the team level, as a result of interactions between individuals within the team. This begs the question how to design artificial team members (agents) as adequate team players that contribute to the team processes advancing team performance, resilience, and learning. This paper proposes the...article 2019

(author)Human-machine teaming (HMT) is a promising paradigm to approach situations in which humans and autonomous systems must closely collaborate. This paper describes SAIL, a software framework for implementing HMT-concepts. The approach of SAIL is to integrate existing autonomous systems in a framework, that serves as a social layer between...conference paper 2018

Fransman, J. (author), Sijs, J. (author), Dol, H.S. (author), Theunissen, E. (author), de Schutter, B.D. (author)DCOP (Distributed Constraint optimization Problem) is a framework for representing distributed multi- agent problems. However, it only allows discrete values for the decision variables, which limits its application for real-world problems. In this paper, an extension of DCOP is investigated to handle variables with continuous domains....conference paper 2018

Attema, T. (author), van Maanen, P.P. (author), Meeuwissen, E. (author)This paper concerns multi-agent models predicting Twitter trends. We use a step-wise approach to develop a novel agent-based model with the following properties: (1) it uses individual behavior parameters for a set of Twitter users and (2) it uses a retweet graph to model the underlying social network structure of these Twitter users to predict...conference paper 2015

Hoogendoorn, M. (author), Jaffry, S.W. (author), van Maanen, P.P. (author), Treur, J. (author)When considering intelligent agents that interact with humans, having an idea of the trust levels of the human, for example in other agents or services, can be of great importance. Most models of human trust that exist assume trust in one trustee is independent of trust in another trustee. The model introduced here addresses so-called relative...article 2014

van Pruissen, O.P. (author), Kamphuis, V. (author), van der Togt, A. (author), Werkman, E. (author)In the near future an increase of both thermal grids and sustainable suppliers of heat with intermittency behavior, connected to these heat grids, is expected. For smart operation this challenges the current centralized management systems. To deal with this and to optimize cost and energy efficiency a multi-agent approach is proposed, which to a...conference paper 2013
