AGENT ENCAPSULATION
IN A COGNITIVE VISION MULTI-AGENT SYSTEM
We cast a basic cognitive vision design into a multi-agent framework
and therein address the questions how and to what extent explicit
consideration of coordination may affect the design and performance of
such systems. In an analysis of our decomposition into task-dependent
entities using both functional and physical approaches to
encapsulation, we show that different kinds of algorithms with
different notions of architecture and representation become possible.
We describe the evolution of our implementation out of a traditional
monolithic design, show how in it functionalities akin to notions of
conventional tracking and reasoning emerge out of the distributed
interaction between component agents, and compare its performance to
the one of the original design.
