Abstract:

The present paper introduces an agent-based ap-proach for clustering geographical data. In this approach,a multi-agent architecture is proposed. It consists of three competence levels: specialized gatherers (G-Agents), breakers(B-Agents), mappers (M-Agents). Each of these agents have particular role in the process of segmentation. Using bi-clustering, the approach combines the different views of the data (according to the land-use classes) to obtain a useful segmentation which serves as an instrument of decision making. Illustrative simulation of the multi-agent architecture on real-world data is reported. ©2009 IEEE.
