An agent framework for dynamic agent retraining: Agent academy [PDF]
Agent Academy (AA) aims to develop a multi-agent society that can train new agents for specific or general tasks, while constantly retraining existing agents in a recursive mode. The system is based on collecting information both from the environment and the behaviors of the acting agents and their related successes/failures to generate a body of data,

Constructive agents nullify the ability of destructive agents to foster cooperation in public goods games [PDF]
Existing studies have revealed a paradoxical phenomenon in public goods games, wherein destructive agents, harming both cooperators and defectors, can unexpectedly bolster cooperation. Building upon this intriguing premise, our paper introduces a novel concept: constructive agents, which confer additional benefits to both cooperators and defectors.

Lamellarin D Acts as an Inhibitor of Type I Collagen Production
COL1A2 gene, encoding type I collagen, is a key target for pulmonary fibrosis. We established a screening system to identify small molecules that inhibit COL1A2 gene expression. Using this system, we screen a library of compounds and identify lamellarin D as a potent inhibitor of COL1A2 expression, suggesting lamellarin D is a promising new lung ...

An informational study of the evolution of codes and of emerging concepts in populations of agents [PDF]
We consider the problem of the evolution of a code within a structured population of agents. The agents try to maximise their information about their environment by acquiring information from the outputs of other agents in the population. A naive use of information-theoretic methods would assume that every agent knows how to "interpret" the information
