Kola, I. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), Tielman, M.L. (author), van Riemsdijk, M.B. (author)Support agents are investigated more and more as a way of assisting people in carrying out daily tasks. Support agents should be flexible in adapting their support to what their user needs. Research suggests that the situation someone is in affects their behaviour, however its effect has not been incorporated in the decision making of support...conference paper 2020

Murukannaiah, P.K. (author), Ajmeri, Nirav (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), Singh, Munindar P. (author)Ethics is inherently a multiagent concern. However, research on AI ethics today is dominated by work on individual agents: (1) how an autonomous robot or car may harm or (differentially) benefit people in hypothetical situations (the so-called trolley problems) and (2) how a machine learning algorithm may produce biased decisions or...conference paper 2020

Li, X. (author), Jansen, K.M.B. (author), Zhang, X. (author), Rozendaal, M.C. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Stress is an important aspect of mental health which impacts on wellbeing. Wearable devices are increasingly used to help people deal with stress in daily life. However, most of the current applications focus on detecting and representing physiological data. In this paper we report on the design of an integrated wearable system composed of...conference paper 2020

Rozendaal, M.C. (author), van Beek, E. (author), Haselager, Pim (author), Abbink, D.A. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)In the context of human-agent interaction, we see the emergence of computational artefacts that display hybridity because they can be experienced as tools and agents. In this paper we propose a tool-agent spectrum as an analytical lens that uses ‘intention’ as a central concept. This spectrum aims to clarify how a computational object can change...conference paper 2020

Kola, I. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), van Riemsdijk, M.B. (author)Behaviour support agents need to be aware of the social environment of the user in order to be able to provide comprehensive support. However, this is a feature that is currently lacking in existing systems. To tackle it, first of all we explore literature from social sciences in order to find which elements of the social environment need to...conference paper 2020

(author), Rafati, Reza (author), Jonker, Willem (author), Hartel, P.H. (author), Peter, Andreas (author)Passive application fingerprinting is a technique to detect anomalous outgoing connections. By monitoring the network traffic, a security monitor passively learns the network characteristics of the applications installed on each machine, and uses them to detect the presence of new applications (e.g., malware infection). In this work, we...conference paper 2020

Ebrahimi Fard, A. (author), Mercuur, R.A. (author), Dignum, M.V. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author), van de Walle, B.A. (author)Rumour is a collective emergent phenomenon with a potential for provoking a crisis. Modelling approaches have been deployed since five decades ago; however, the focus was mostly on epidemic behaviour of the rumours which does not take into account the differences between agents. We use social practice theory to model agent decision-making in...conference paper 2020

Cavalcante Siebert, L. (author), Mercuur, R.A. (author), Dignum, M.V. (author), van den Hoven, M.J. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Autonomous agents (AA) will increasingly be interacting with us in our daily lives. While we want the benefits attached to AAs, it is essential that their behavior is aligned with our values and norms. Hence, an AA will need to estimate the values and norms of the humans it interacts with, which is not a straightforward task when solely...conference paper 2020

(author)Artificially intelligent agents will deal with more morally sensitive situations as the field of AI progresses. Research efforts are made to regulate, design and build Artificial Moral Agents (AMAs) capable of making moral decisions. This research is highly multidisciplinary with each their own jargon and vision, and so far it is unclear...conference paper 2020

Wolter, R.C. (author), Hindriks, K.V. (author), Samur, Dalya (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)The commercial availability of robots and voice-operated smart devices such as Alexa or Google Home have some companies wondering whether they can replace some current human interactions by using these devices. One such area of interaction is at the reception desk. While both platforms can offer the necessary interaction features to take on...conference paper 2020

Hennig, R.J. (author), Jonker, Martijn (author), Tindemans, Simon H. (author), De Vries, Laurens (author)Residential distribution networks in Europe are undergoing rapid changes. As high-power flexible loads, such as electric vehicle (EV) chargers, become more prevalent, the risk of network congestion increases. This is exacerbated by tariff structures which do not give incentives to limit simultaneous power consumption. Network charges in this...conference paper 2020

Renting, B.M. (author), Hoos, Holger H. (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)Bidding and acceptance strategies have a substantial impact on the outcome of negotiations in scenarios with linear additive and nonlinear utility functions. Over the years, it has become clear that there is no single best strategy for all negotiation settings, yet many fixed strategies are still being developed. We envision a shift in the...conference paper 2020

Koeman, V.J. (author), Hindriks, K.V. (author), Gratch, Jonathan (author), Jonker, C.M. (author)To improve a negotiator's ability to recognise bidding strategies, we pro-actively provide explanations that are based on the opponent's bids and the negotiator's guesses about the opponent's strategy. We introduce an aberration detection mechanism for recognising strategies and the notion of an explanation matrix. The aberration detection...conference paper 2019
