Probabilistic Agent Programs [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 1999
Agents are small programs that autonomously take actions based on changes in their environment or ``state.'' Over the last few years, there have been an increasing number of efforts to build agents that can interact and/or collaborate with other agents.

Management of acute bronchitis in healthy adults. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2004
Acute respiratory infections (ARIs) are the most common infections in humans, accounting for half of all acute conditions each year in the United States. Acute bronchitis episodes represent a significant portion of these illnesses.

Immunity, Inflammation and Airway Dysfunction in Elite Cross‐Country Skiers and Ice Hockey Players: A Systematic Review

open access: yesScandinavian Journal of Medicine &Science in Sports, Volume 35, Issue 4, April 2025.
ABSTRACT Strenuous exercise in elite sports impacts the immune system, leading to high rates of upper respiratory tract infections and airway dysfunction, such as asthma and exercise‐induced bronchoconstriction (EIB). Cross‐country (XC) skiers and ice hockey (IH) players are particularly affected due to their training environments and sports ...

An agent framework for dynamic agent retraining: Agent academy [PDF]

open access: yesIn B. Stanford-Smith, E. Chiozza, and M. Edin, editors, Challenges and Achievements in e-business and e-work, pages 757-764, Prague, Czech Republic, October 2002. IOS Press, 2004
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,

Study on the changes of extracellular matrix morphology and components in COPD animal model by using lung decellularized scaffold

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 6, 31 March 2025.
Airway remodeling plays a significant role in the progression of COPD. By utilizing decellularized scaffolds, immunofluorescence, scanning electron microscopy, and proteomics, we investigated ECM changes associated with COPD. Our analysis revealed notable ultrastructural abnormalities and alterations in ECM composition, including increased collagen ...

An informational study of the evolution of codes and of emerging concepts in populations of agents [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2015
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
