The connection between the festival of Pesaḥ-Maṣṣot and Israelites’ exodus from Egypt is a cornerstone Jewish identity religious practice which has its roots in calendars Pentateuch (Exod. 12–13; Exod. 23; Lev. Deut. 16). However, closer investigation shows that texts question differ considerably both with respect to characteristics etiological exodus. present paper focuses particularly on comp...

Multi-document summaries produced via sentence extraction often suffer from a number of cohesion problems, including dangling anaphora, sudden shifts in topic and incorrect or awkward chronological ordering. Therefore, the development of an automated revision process to correct such problems is a research area of current interest. We present the RevisionBank, a corpus of 240 extractive, multido...

Committees of classifiers with learning capabilities have good performance in a variety of domains. We focus on committees of agents with learning capabilities where no agent is omniscient but has a local, limited, individual view of data. In this framework, a major issue is how to integrate the individual results in an overall result—usually a voting mechanism is used. We propose a setting whe...

The objective of our paper is to investigate the possibilities of a logical representation for argumentation executed in multi-agent systems. We concentrate particularly on belief’s uncertainty and revision that an agent deals with throughout the process of discussion. Moreover, we propose a formalism based on a multi-valued logic that allows for specification of properties of multi-agent syste...

The AGM model is the most remarkable framework for modeling belief revision. However, it is not perfect in all aspects. Paraconsistent belief revision, multi-agent belief revision and non-prioritized belief revision are three different extensions to AGM to address three important criticisms applied to it. In this article, we propose a framework based on AGM that takes a position in each of thes...

This paper deals with the problem of how to represent changes in belief when several agents are witnesses to some event in the world and they are witnesses to the event in such a manner that it is common knowledge that they have all witnessed it. The problem is closely analogous to the problem of how to represent changes in belief when common announcements are made, announcements where it becom...

This paper investigates the effect of predefining semantics in modelling the evolution of compositional languages versus allowing agents to develop these semantics in parallel with the development of language. The study is done using a multi-agent model of language evolution that is based on the Talking Heads experiment. The experiments show that when allowing a co-evolution of semantics with l...

We study a multi-step hider-seeker game where the hider is moving on a graph and, in each step, the seeker is able to search c subsets of the graph nodes. We model this game as a zero-sum Bayesian game, which can be solved in weakly polynomial time in the players’ action spaces. The seeker’s action space is exponential in c, and both players’ action spaces are exponential in the game horizon. T...
