Introduction

This project aims to use Street Agent to develop an suitable experimental platform which is able to reproduce the Ant's foraging behaviours. This project has developed an entire ant foraging logical by using Street language and an multi-agent interface system for Street Agent. Own designed platform has been proved the Street Engine can be used to reproduce simple cognitive behaviours of ants.

Background

In biology, ants walk randomly and leave a trail of pheromone when they foraging, once an ant find food, ant can follow pheromone trail back to the nest, other ants will follow this pheromone to approach food when they find this pheromone trail. Street Cognitive Architecture is first developed based on Soar Cognitive Architecture at The University of Adelaide. It is aimed be used for artificial intelligent(AGI) applications. The street language has developed for building street engine, which is based on pattern-matching rules. In 2018, honour project team at the university has developed own designed street agent logical and an multi-agent entire suitable experimental platform using street agent to achieve ants cooperation foraging behaviours, including recognize food, nest location and pheromone. During project period, the street language has been used to create an artificial general intelligent system.

Motivation

Street Engine is a new developed computer architecture which is developed by The University of Adelaide. In previous years, two groups has been proved Street Engine is able to achieve advanced cognitive computation in real-time, such as Tic Tac Toe group. But the Artificial General Intelligence agent cannot be limited in one or two single function achievement.

A suitable experimental system for Artificial General Intelligent Street Agents remains as a challenge to a the Street project research group. Therefore, Our group expect to build a virtual and physical platform with embedded Street Agent to achieve multi-agent with multi-functions to reproduce simple cognitive behaviours of insects, such as ants foraging behaviours.
