With the proliferation of internet, it is increasingly needed to realize personalized news filtering service reflecting user's interest. In this Paper, we implement a filtering agent for Personalized news service. In the proposed system, Kohonen network for an unsupervised learning is used to train keywords provided by users and the personalization is achieved by using the trained neural network. After we trained and tested our filtering agent we could provide users news groups considering their interests.

In a widely distributed environment, many occasions arise when people need to filter informationwith email clients. The existing information agents such as Maxims and Message Assistant have capabilities of filtering email messages either by an autonomous agent or by user-defined rules. FlexMA, a variation of FAMES (Flexible Asynchronous Messaging System) is proposed as an information filtering agent. Agents in our system can be scaled up to adapt user's various demands by controlling messages delivered among heterogeneous email clients. Several functionalities are split into each agent in terms of component configuration with the addition of multiple agents'cooperation and negotiation. User-defined rules are collected and executed by these agents in a semi-autonomous manner. This paper demonstrates how this design is feasible in a flexible message system.

A mobile agent system that searches for meaningful information from web XML documents is developed. For this, a domain information was conceptualized and a universal DTD generator is developed. A mobile agent with the universal DTD is dispatched to remote sites, extracts meaning information, and transmits the information back to a host. This way of information filtering is able to enhance the quality of information and reduce the network transmission overhead.

Automated collaborative filtering is on the verge of becoming a popular technique to reduce overloaded information as well as to solve the problems that content-based information filtering systems cannot handle. In this paper, we describe three different algorithms that perform collaborative filtering: GroupLens that is th traditional technique; Best N, the modified one; and an algorithm that uses clustering. Based on the exeprimental results using real data, the algorithm using clustering is compared with the existing representative collaborative filtering agent algorithms such as GroupLens and Best N. The experimental results indicate that the algorithms using clustering is similar to Best N and better than GroupLens for prediction accuracy. The results also demonstrate that the algorithm using clustering produces the best performance according to the standard deviation of error rate. This means that the algorithm using clustering gives the most stable and the best uniform recommendation. In addition, the algorithm using clustering reduces the time of recommendation.

HLA-RTI is middleware for the distribute simulation that developed in the US Department of Defense. This provides fast accomplishment speed and reliability than distribute simulation Middleware by transfer. However, DDM(Data Distribution Management) service is used as data filtering technology in the existing HLA-RTI. As for this, the problem that network traffic increases in data exchange between the mobility simulation objects is generated. it proposes applying agent technology to the mobility simulation object in order to solve these problems in this paper in this. And this paper applies that to practical simulation and analyzes performance between each data filtering technology with comparison.

With the proliferation of internet and an increase in internet users, several kinds of vast information are provided to users on the internet. It is increasing in the need of personalization service by filtering user preferred news among various news documents provided through several news servers.. In this paper, we implemented a filtering agent system to meet to demand for personalized news service. In the proposed system, Kohonen network is used to train keywords provided by users and to classify news groups. Resulting from that, the personalized new service is achieved. After we trained and tested the filtering agent, we could provide users news groups with their intention.

As e-mail is becoming increasingly important in every day life activity, mail users spend more and more time organizing and classifying the e-mails they receive into folder. Many existing recommendation systems or text classification are mostly focused on recommending the products for the commercial purposes or web documents. So this study aims to apply these application to e-mail more necessary to users. This paper suggests a dynamic recommendation agent system based on Rule Filtering Component recommending the relevant category to enable users directly to manage the optimum classification when a new e-mail is received as the effective method for E-Mail Management. Moreover we try to improve the accuracy as eliminating the limits of misclassification that can be key in classifying e-mails by category. While the existing Bayesian Learning Algorithm mostly uses the fixed threshold, we prove to improve the satisfaction of users as increasing the accuracy by changing the fixed threshold to the dynamic threshold. We designed main modules by rule filtering component for enhanced scalability and reusability of our system.

Due to the usefulness of the collaborative filtering, it has been widely used in both the research and commercial field. However, there are still some challenges for it to be more efficient, especially the scalability problem, the sparsity problem and the cold start problem. In this paper. we address these problems and provide a novel distributed approach based on agents collaboration for the problems. We have tried to solve the scalability problem by making each agent save its users ratings and broadcast them to the users friends so that only friends ratings and his own ratings are kept in an agents local database. To reduce quality degradation of recommendation caused by the lack of rating data, we introduce a method using friends opinions instead of real rating data when they are not available. We also suggest a collaborative filtering algorithm based on user profile to provide new users with recommendation service. Experiments show that our suggested approach is helpful to the new user problem as well as is more scalable than traditional centralized CF filtering systems and alleviate the sparsity problem.

현재의 정보 과적재(information overload) 상황은 대량의 정보 가운데서 사용자의 관련 정보에 대한 요청을 도와 불필요한 정보로부터 막기 위한 도구가 매우 필요한 실정이다. 이러한 도구중 대표적으로 사용되는 웹 검색 엔진과 같은 정보 검색 시스템의 단점은 적합한 검색용어를 선택해야만 하는 점과, 결과에 대한 효율적인 요약이 제공되지 않는다는 점이다.따라서 본 논문에서는 이러한 검색 엔진에서의 단점을 보완하여 사용자를 정보 과잉 상황에서의 불필요한 정보로부터 보호하기 위해, 사용자의 프로파일을 기반으로 하여 정보를 개인화된 요약과 함께 제공하는 정보 여과 에이전트(information filtering agent)인 '사용자 맞춤의 문서 요약을 제공하는 정보 여과 에이전트 시스템'을 제안한다.
