Probabilistic reasoning with graphical models, also known as Bayesian networks or belief networks, has become increasingly an active field of research and practice in artificial intelligence, operations research and statistics. The success of this technique in modeling intelligent decision support systems under the centralized and single-agent paradigm has been striking. Yang Xiang extends graphical dependence models to the distributed and multi-agent paradigm. He identifies the major technical challenges involved in such an endeavor and presents the results. The framework developed in the book allows distributed representation of uncertain knowledge on a large and complex environment embedded in multiple cooperative agents, and effective, exact and distributed probabilistic inference.Distributed artificial intelligenceBayesian statistical decision theoryData processingIntelligent agents (Computer software)Distributed artificial intelligence.Bayesian statistical decision theoryData processing.Intelligent agents (Computer software)006.3Xiang Yang1954-1676074MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910819497103321Probabilistic reasoning in multiagent systems4042018UNINA
