인터넷은 방대한 정보의 집합체이다. 사용자들은 웹에서 자신이 원하는 정보를 검색하여 사용하고 있다. 하지만 웹은 워낙 방대한 정보를 보유하고 있고 사용자가 원하는 정보가 다양해질수록 이러한 정보를 찾는 것은 어려워질 수 있다. 많은 유저들이 서로 다른 기호를 가지고 있는 만큼, 사용자에 따라 다른 형태의 정보를 제공하는 것이 필요하다. 이러한 형태의 서비스를 제공하기 위해서는 다양한 프로그램들이 상호협력하는 것이 필요하다. 본 논문은 데이터베이스를 활용한 멀티 에이전트 시스템을 통하여 사용자가 원하는 정보를 쉽게 관리하고 찾는 것에 목적을 둔다.

Chatbots have become very popular in our times and are used in several fields. The emergence of chatbots has created a new way of communicating between human and computer interaction. A Chatbot also called a "Chatter Robot," or conversational agent CA is a software application that mimics human conversations in its natural format, which contains textual material and oral communication with artificial intelligence AI techniques. Generally, there are two types of chatbots rule-based and smart machine-based. Over the years, several chatbots designed in many languages for serving various fields such as medicine, entertainment, and education. Unfortunately, in the Arabic chatbots area, little work has been done. In this paper, we developed a beneficial tool (chatBot) in the Arabic language which contributes to educating people about the Prophet's biography providing them with useful information by using Natural Language Processing.

This paper implements the graphic service template authoring tool based on the service template object model of describing the meta information of the services for early childhood education in the semantic web service environment. Our proposed system provides the robot services by constructing web services automatically and making the appropriate service plans. Moreover, it can create, append, delete, and update the service templates of URC based on STDL, and provide the graphic function on service template resources. In order to provide the user friendly environment in the service template phase, we implement the various editing environment : flow view style, grid view style, and text view style. We also provide the easy editing function by realizing abstract service block based on the robot API. Finally we can offer the intelligent and autonomous service of service agent based on semantic information.

Although service robots in various fields are being commercialized, most of them have problems that depend on explicit commands by users and have difficulty to generate robust reactions of the robot in the unstable condition using insufficient sensor data. To solve these problems, we modeled mirror neuron and theory of mind systems, and applied them to a robot agent to show the usefulness. In order to implement quick and intuitive response of the mirror neuron, the proposed intention-response model utilized behavior selection networks considering external stimuli and a goal, and in order to perform reactions based on the long-term action plan of theory of mind system, we planned behaviors of the sub-goal unit using a hierarchical task network planning, and controled behavior selection network modules. Experiments with various scenarios revealed that appropriate reactions were generated according to external stimuli.

This paper proposes an enhanced fast scanning method for multi-agent robot system. Passive RFID tag can read and store the information within the range of recognizable RF tag reader. Based on this information of Passive RFID tag, the position of mobile robot can be estimated and at the same time, the efficiency of scanning process can be improved because it provides a scanning trace for other mobile robots. This paper proposes an dfficient motion planning algorithm for mobile robots in a smart floor environment.

The paper presents dual arm ROV manipulation using deep reinforcement learning. The purpose of this underwater manipulator is to investigate and excavate natural resources in ocean, finding lost aircraft blackboxes and for performing other extremely dangerous tasks without endangering humans. This research work emphasizes on a self-learning approach using Deep Reinforcement Learning (DRL). DRL technique allows ROV to learn the policy of performing manipulation task directly, from raw image data. Our proposed architecture maps the visual inputs (images) to control actions (output) and get reward after each action, which allows an agent to learn manipulation skill through trial and error method. We have trained our network in simulation. The raw images and rewards are directly provided by our simple Lua simulator. Our simulator achieve accuracy by considering underwater dynamic environmental conditions. Major goal of this research is to provide a smart self-learning way to achieve manipulation in highly dynamic underwater environment. The results showed that a dual robotic arm trained for a 3DOF movement successfully achieved target reaching task in a 2D space by considering real environmental factor.

로봇 에이전트는 변화하는 환경에서 센서정보를 바탕으로 적절한 행동을 선택하며 동작하는 것이 중요하다. 행동 선택 네트워크는 이러한 환경에서 변화하는 센서정보에 따라 실시간으로 행동을 선택할 수 있다는 점에서, 장시간에 걸친 최적화보다 단시간 내 개선된 효율성에 초점을 맞추어 사용되어 왔다. 하지만 행동 선택 네트워크는 초기 문제에 의존적으로 설계되어 변화하는 환경에 유연하게 대처하지 못한다는 맹점을 가지고 있다. 본 논문에서는 행동 선택 네트워크의 연결을 LCS를 기반으로 진화 학습시켰다. LCS는 유전자 알고리즘을 통해 만들어진 규칙들을 강화학습을 통해 평가하며, 이를 통해 변화하는 환경에 적합한 규칙을 생성한다. 제안하는 모델에서는 LCS의 규칙이 센서정보를 포함한다. 진화가 진행되는 도중 이 규칙들이 모든 센서 정보를 포함하지 못하기 때문에 현재의 센서 정보를 반영하지 못하는 경우가 발생할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 이를 해결하기 위해 센서정보 별로 개체를 따로 유지하는 방법을 제안한다. 제안하는 방법의 검증을 위해 Webots 시뮬레이터에서 케페라 로봇을 이용해 실험을 하여, 변화하는 환경에서 로봇 에이전트가 학습을 통해 올바른 행동을 선택함을 보였고, 일반LCS를 사용한 것보다 조건별 개체 유지를 통해 더 나은 결과를 보이는 것 또한 확인하였다.

In this paper, we propose a new neuro-fuzzy controller based on reinforcement learning. The proposed system is composed of neuro-fuzzy controller which decides the behaviors of an agent, and dynamic recurrent neural networks(DRNNs) which criticise the result of the behaviors. Neuro-fuzzy controller is learned by reinforcement learning. Also, DRNNs are evolved by genetic algorithms and make internal reinforcement signal based on external reinforcement signal from environments and internal states. This output(internal reinforcement signal) is used as a teaching signal of neuro-fuzzy controller and keeps the controller on learning. The proposed system will be applied to controller optimization and adaptation with unknown environment. In order to verifY the effectiveness of the proposed system, it is applied to collision avoidance of an autonomous mobile robot on computer simulation.

In this paper, we describe the approaches of shopping agents and directory services for online comparison shopping on the web, and propose an information indexing and retrieval system, named InfoEye, with a new method for automatic extraction of product information. The developed method is based on the knowledge about presentation of the product information on the Web. The method from the knowledge about presentation of the product information is derived from both the point that online stores display their products to customers in easy-to-browse ways and heuristics made of analyses of product information look-and-feel of domestic online stores. In indexing process, the method is applied to product information extraction from Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) documents collected by a mirroring robot from online stores. We have made InfoEye to a readily usable stage and transferred the technology to Webnara commercial shopping engine. The proposed system is a cutting-edge solution to help customers as a shopping expert by providing information about the reasonable price of a product from dozens of online stores, saving customers shopping time, giving information about new products, and comparing quality factors of products in a same category.
