Abstract Introduced as an interdisciplinary area that combines multi-agent systems, data mining and knowledge discovery, agent mining is currently in practice. To develop agent mining applications involves a combination of different approaches (model, architecture, technique and so on) from software agent and data mining (DM) areas. This paper presents an investigation of the approaches used in the agent mining systems by deeply analyzing 121 papers resulting from a systematic literature review. An ontology was defined to capitalize the knowledge collected from this study. The ontology is organized according to seven main facets: the problem addressed, the application domain, the agent-related and the mining-related elements, the models, processes and algorithms. This ontology is aimed at providing support to decisions about agent mining application design.

The Subject

Abstract Precisely when the success of artificial intelligence (AI) sub-symbolic techniques makes them be identified with the whole AI by many non-computer-scientists and non-technical media, symbolic approaches are getting more and more attention as those that could make AI amenable to human understanding. Given the recurring cycles in the AI history, we expect that a revamp of technologies often tagged as “classical AI”—in particular, logic-based ones—will take place in the next few years. On the other hand, agents and multi-agent systems (MAS) have been at the core of the design of intelligent systems since their very beginning, and their long-term connection with logic-based technologies, which characterised their early days, might open new ways to engineer explainable intelligent systems. This is why understanding the current status of logic-based technologies for MAS is nowadays of paramount importance. Accordingly, this paper aims at providing a comprehensive view of those technologies by making them the subject of a systematic literature review (SLR). The resulting technologies are discussed and evaluated from two different perspectives: the MAS and the logic-based ones.

The Internet Of Things

The capabilities of robotic systems are growing rapidly. The ways of operating such systems are increasing every day. Sensor networks, the Internet of Things, cyber-physical systems have similar properties as multi-agent robotic systems, which allows us to consider the approaches and methods of ensuring security used in them. Purpose of the article: improving the security of multi-agent systems in an uncontrolled environment, developing methods for assessing trust of the environment. Research methods: analysis of existing threat models for multi-agent robotic systems, as well as systems with similar properties: cyber-physical systems and the Internet of things. Analysis of the research results of existing approaches to ensuring the security of multi-agent systems. The results: an analysis of security threats and existing methods of ensuring security for robotic multi-agent systems, as well as systems with similar properties, was carried out. An extension for security methods based on trust and reputation has been developed, taking into account the operating environment of the system as part of information interaction. A method for localizing the subject of an external intruder in the environment is proposed.
