Market-Driven Multi-Agent Collaboration for Extinguishing Fires in the RoboCup Rescue Simulation Domain
نویسندگان
چکیده
Market-driven methods are the applications of basic free market economy principles to multiagent planning tasks. They take advantage of the communication among the team members for maximizing the overall utility of a team of agents, one example of which is the rescue agents competing in the RoboCup Rescue Simulation League. In this paper, a modified market-driven algorithm and its integration to the behavioral architecture implemented for fire brigade agents of the rescue team are described. The algorithm is shown to provide a remarkable increase in the overall profit of the team.

Successful Search and Rescue in Simulated Disaster Areas
RoboCupRescue Simulation is a large-scale multi-agent simulation of urban disasters where, in order to save lives and minimize damage, rescue teams must effectively cooperate despite sensing and communication limitations. This paper presents the comprehensive search and rescue approach of the ResQ Freiburg team, the winner in the RoboCupRescue Simulation league at RoboCup 2004. Specific contrib...
متن کاملMulti-agent Planning for the RoboCup Rescue Simulation - Applying Clustering into Task Allocation and Coordination
The RoboCup Rescue Simulation system provides a rich environment for developing novel techniques for multi-agent systems. The simulation provides a city map modeled as buildings and roads with civilians amongst them. A disaster scenario is simulated causing buildings to catch fire, roads to get blocked, and civilians to get injured and/or buried. The main goal is to use the available emergency ...
متن کاملA Hybrid Three Layer Architecture for Fire Agent Management in Rescue Simulation Environment
This paper presents a new architecture called FAIS for implementing intelligent agents cooperating in a special Multi Agent environment, namely the RoboCup Rescue Simulation System. This is a layered architecture which is customized for solving fire extinguishing problem. Structural decision making algorithms are combined with heuristic ones in this model, so it's a hybrid architecture.
متن کاملAgent-Based Disaster Simulation Evaluation and its Probability Model Interpretation
Agent-based simulations enable the simulation of social phenomenon by representing human behaviors using agents. Human actions such as evacuating to safe havens or extinguishing fires in disaster areas are important during earthquakes. The inclusion of human actions in calculating the damage at disaster sites provides useful data to local governments for planning purposes. In order to practical...
متن کاملRoboCup Rescue: Search and Rescue in Large-Scale Disasters as a Domain for Autonomous Agents Research
Disaster rescue is one of the most serious social issue which involves very large numbers of hetergenious agents in the hostile environment. RoboCup-Rescue intends to promote research and development in this socially signi cant domain by creating a standard simulator and forum for researchers and practitioners. While the rescue domain intuitively appealing as large scale multi-agent domains, it...
