A multi team system consists of multiple teams where each team may have their own goals, but system in general has a common ultimate goal http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Multiteam_system. This is really interesting. I think that this would be an interesting direction to move bounties. Also, on a different note, I think that a survey of this field would… Continue reading Multi-team Systems

Car insurance data
Did you know that auto insurance companies allow you to look up a quote online. All you need is your name, address and date of birth and they will show you your cars! That means you can with a little effort find out what cars people have! Year and Model at least. That could be… Continue reading Car insurance data
fun autonomous vehicle ideas
Would be cool in the future with autonomous cars we will be able to have events where instead of having stations in a building that you walk to you would be in cars. And whenever you switched you would change cars. Bathroom car! Would be too cool to have an autonomous bus/car that just… Continue reading fun autonomous vehicle ideas
Entangled FindSet
Would be cool to use quantum entanglement to do instant FindSets (seeing if two elements are contained in the same set) for Kruskal MST algorithm. Say each vertex is a photon. Whenever you do a union you entangle the photons. Then all you have to do to compare if the photons belong to the same… Continue reading Entangled FindSet
tv channel
The animation for the channel number on our tv (you know how when you change the channel it tells you what channel you are now on) changed today. Made me wonder how that happens. I thought that was defined by the tv… Strange.
Spacial-temporal clustering
I think that idea is actually a field. Specifically spacial-temporal clustering. There are a lot of highly cited papers in this field. Also, it seems like it sort of tapered off in the mid-2000s. I don’t see any mention of it being applied to a multiagent system other than for cars.
Ponderings on an old topic
See people in general are getting in each others way when in a crowded environment. When there is a group of people that are working together in this crowd, their removal would cause the system to The idea is to try and find the least noisy, as the less noisy the I’m back to wanting… Continue reading Ponderings on an old topic
Fun problem
David had an idea for a problem: Given N individuals, each individual must, say, play a game with M other individuals. The length of the game is stochastic and dependent on who is playing the game. Describe an algorithm that will optimally group the individuals such that each individual has to wait the minimum amount… Continue reading Fun problem
HyperNEAT and facial recognition
So, I know that facial recognition is pretty decent, but I think that HyperNEAT would be pretty good at doing this. I think that it would be able to take advantage of the geometry of the face in order to better characterize the face. I have found a paper that used HyperNEAT on digits, and… Continue reading HyperNEAT and facial recognition
Adaptive Auctions
I found my idea that I had for the adaptive auctions. This isn’t the full general case of negotiation, but it is a start. http://www.sigecom.org/exchanges/volume_5/5.3-Pardoe.pdf And its by Peter Stone :).
