Continuous nonlinear dimensionality reduction by kernel Eigenmaps
We equate nonlinear dimensionality reduction (NLDR) to graph embedding with side information about the vertices, and derive a solution to either problem in the form of a kernel-ba...

A New Look at the Semantics and Optimization Methods of CP-Networks
Preference elicitation is a serious bottleneck in many decision support applications and agent specification tasks. CP-nets were designed to make the preference elicitation proces...

Simultaneous Adversarial Multi-Robot Learning
Multi-robot learning faces all of the challenges of robot learning with all of the challenges of multiagent learning. There has been a great deal of recent research on multiagent ...

A Formalization of Equilibria for Multiagent Planning
Planning has traditionally focused on single agent systems. Although planning domain languages have been extended to multiagent domains, solution concepts have not. Previous solut...

Splitting the atom: A new approach to Neighbourhood Interchangeability in Constraint Satisfaction Problems
We investigate interchangeability of values in CSPs, based on an approach where a single value in the domain of a variable can be treated as a combination of “sub-values”. An ...

Towards Cooperative Negotiation for Decentralized Resource Allocation in Autonomic Computing Systems
Resource allocation is a key problem in autonomic computing. In this paper we use a data center scenario to motivate the need for decentralization and cooperative negotiation, and...

On the Foundations of Expected Expected Utility
Intelligent agents often need to assess user utility functions in order to make decisions on their behalf, or predict their behavior. When uncertainty exists over the precise natu...

On the Undecidability of Description and Dynamic Logics with Recursion and Counting
The evolution of Description Logics (DLs) and Propositional Dynamic Logics produced a hierar­ chy of decidable logics with multiple maximal el­ ements. It would be desirable to ...

A Logic For Causal Reasoning
We introduce a logical formalism of irreflexivc causal production relations that possesses both a standard monotonic semantics, and a natural nonmonotonic semantics. The formalism...
