The paper proposes the multiagent techniques for approximation of agent’s state in the multiresolution multiagent simulation. The key methods we have used for state aggregation and disaggregation are: consensus algorithm and formation control. The idea of the coordination of multiple agents has emerged from both observation and simulation of a collective behavior of biological entities. The consensus algorithms are commonly used for the cooperative control problems in the multiagent systems, whilst the formation control is the most popular and fundamental motion coordination problem in the multiagent systems, where agents converge to predefined geometric shapes. The presented approach shows that multiagent methods seem to be very promising in multiresolution simulation. Consensus and formation control algorithms remove necessity to specify the much more complex algorithms for the aggregation and disaggregation needs.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
