Popis: Vision is one of the most important sources of information for supporting intelligent human behaviour, as well as a key competence for designing new types of intelligent computers and machines. Over the period of the past 40 years or so, computer vision has evolved into a mature subject including many topics and applications which range from the automatic interpretation of documents to the image recognition for the automatic guidance of vehicles. In reality, however, current computer vision systems are vastly di-erent from, and in most ways inferior to, biological vision systems. Software agents are computer programs capable of 3exible, autonomous action and may support a wide range of di-erent behaviours, de5ned as rules, or based on machine learning algorithms such as neural networks. Agents also, generally, monitor their operating environment and respond to events in a timely fashion, utilising internal scheduling and planning engines to formulate a response. Perhaps the most signi5cant advantage that an agent-based approach provides is the ability to design systems based on decoupled units–based on the particular role that such a unit is likely to play within a multi-agent system. Authors are encouraged to submit papers which cover some of the following issues (although this list is not exhaustive)
