and forestry. To solve some of the problems in forestry and agriculture, the German Research Center for Artificial Intelligence and the Saarland Ministry of Economics founded the Cooperative Agents and Integrated Services for Logistic and Electronic Trading in Forestry and Agriculture (Casa) project. The Casa project focuses on developing an agentbased information and trading network (ITN). In ...

Flooding is one of the most common natural hazards that produce substantial loss of life and property. The QPE products that are derived at high spatiotemporal resolution, which is enabled by the deployment of a dense radar network, have the potential to improve the prediction of flash-flooding threats when coupled with hydrological models. The US National Science Foundation Engineering Researc...

We propose a computational auditory scene analysis (CASA) model for monaural speech segregation. It deals with low-frequency and high-frequency signals differently. For high-frequency signals, it generates segments based on common amplitude modulation (AM) and groups them according to AM repetition rates. This model performs substantially better than previous CASA systems.

The interest in agent based technologies in the sense of distributed computing is continuously increasing in academic and industrial research and development. But the concentration of research in distinct niches has lead to a lack of consensus regarding basic concepts of agent theory and their relation to the development of agent systems and applications. This gap between theory and practice ha...
