چکیده

This paper presents the study of a population of communicating agents living on hilly landscapes. These simple language-learning agents are utilised as the basis of investigation of complex adaptive systems processes. Such agents are able to develop their own language by interacting with each other while traversing their environments. The model can then be used to examine phenomena of self-organisation of language and adaptation of agent behaviour to the environment.

The Acquisition of Linguistic Competence for Communicating Propositional Logic Sentences

We describe some experiments which show how a language expressive enough to allow the communication of meanings of the same complexity as propositional logic formulas can emerge in a population of autonomous agents which have no prior linguistic knowledge. We take an approach based on general purpose cognitive capacities, such as invention, adoption and induction, and on self-organisation princ...

A Context-aware Architecture for Mental Model Sharing through Semantic Movement in Intelligent Agents

Recent studies in multi-agent systems are paying increasingly more attention to the paradigm of designing intelligent agents with human inspired concepts. One of the main cognitive concepts driving the core of many recent approaches in multi agent systems is shared mental models. In this paper, we propose an architecture for sharing mental models based on a new concept called semantic movement....

Propositional Logic Syntax Acquisition Using Induction and Self-Organization

This paper addresses the problem of the acquisition of the syntax of propositional logic. An approach based on general purpose cognitive capacities such as invention, adoption, parsing, generation and induction is proposed. Selforganisation principles are used to show how a shared set of preferred lexical entries and grammatical constructions, i.e., a language, can emerge in a population of aut...

Simulating Language Learning in Community of Agents Using Self-Organizing Maps

In this article, we present a model of a cognitive system, or an agent, with the following properties: it can perceive its environment, it can move in its environment, it can perform some simple actions, and it can send and receive messages. The main components of its internal structure include a working memory, a semantic memory, and a decision making mechanism. In our implemented simulation m...

The self-organisation of combinatoriality and phonotactics in vocalisation systems

This paper shows how a society of agents can self-organise a shared vocalisation system which is discrete, combinatorial, and has a form of primitive phonotactics, starting from holistic inarticulate vocalisations. The originality of the system is that: 1) it does not include any explicit pressure for communication; 2) agents do not possess capabilities of coordinated interactions, in particula...
