An AI-Based Decision-Support Pipeline for Day-Ahead Photovoltaic Forecasting
Fariba Dehghan, Sebastian Stein, Vahid Yazdanpanah +2
Reliable photovoltaic (PV) forecasts can support low-carbon energy systems, but deployed sites may have only short and incomplete records. Physical and hybrid methods can be sensit…
Instruction-Conditioned Exploration for Reinforcement Learning with Self-Distillation to an Unconditioned Policy
Jim Dilkes, Vahid Yazdanpanah, Sebastian Stein
Post-training Large Language Models (LLMs) with Reinforcement Learning (RL) has become an important tool for improving model capabilities, but the LLM action-space structure introd…
Three Lessons from Citizen-Centric Participatory AI Design
Eike Schneiders, Sarah Kiden, Beining Zhang +5
This workshop paper examines challenges in designing agentic AI systems from a citizen-centric perspective. Drawing on three participatory workshops conducted in 2025 with members…
Reinforced Language Models for Sequential Decision Making
Jim Dilkes, Vahid Yazdanpanah, Sebastian Stein
Large Language Models (LLMs) show potential as sequential decision-making agents, but their application is often limited due to a reliance on large, computationally expensive model…
PTFA: An LLM-based Agent that Facilitates Online Consensus Building through Parallel Thinking
Wen Gu, Zhaoxing Li, Jan Buermann +5
Consensus building is inherently challenging due to the diverse opinions held by stakeholders. Effective facilitation is crucial to support the consensus building process and enabl…
TutorLLM: Customizing Learning Recommendations with Knowledge Tracing and Retrieval-Augmented Generation
Zhaoxing Li, Vahid Yazdanpanah, Jindi Wang +5
The integration of AI in education offers significant potential to enhance learning efficiency. Large Language Models (LLMs), such as ChatGPT, Gemini, and Llama, allow students to…
Responsible AI Governance: A Response to UN Interim Report on Governing AI for Humanity
Sarah Kiden, Bernd Stahl, Beverley Townsend +22
This report presents a comprehensive response to the United Nation's Interim Report on Governing Artificial Intelligence (AI) for Humanity. It emphasizes the transformative potenti…
Trust Modelling and Verification Using Event-B
Asieh Salehi Fathabadi, Vahid Yazdanpanah
Trust is a crucial component in collaborative multiagent systems (MAS) involving humans and autonomous AI agents. Rather than assuming trust based on past system behaviours, it is…
From Intelligent Agents to Trustworthy Human-Centred Multiagent Systems
Mohammad Divband Soorati, Enrico H. Gerding, Enrico Marchioni +9
The Agents, Interaction and Complexity research group at the University of Southampton has a long track record of research in multiagent systems (MAS). We have made substantial sci…
Dynamics and Allocation of Transaction Cost in Multiagent Industrial Symbiosis
Vahid Yazdanpanah, Devrim Murat Yazan, W. Henk M. Zijm
This paper discusses the dynamics of Transaction Cost (TC) in Industrial Symbiosis Institutions (ISI) and provides a fair and stable mechanism for TC allocation among the involved…
Coordinating Multiagent Industrial Symbiosis
Vahid Yazdanpanah, Devrim Murat Yazan, W. Henk M. Zijm
We present a formal multiagent framework for coordinating a class of collaborative industrial practices called Industrial Symbiotic Networks (ISNs) as cooperative games. The game-t…
An Introduction to Engineering Multiagent Industrial Symbiosis Systems: Potentials and Challenges
Vahid Yazdanpanah, Devrim Murat Yazan, Jos van Hillegersberg +1
Multiagent Systems (MAS) research reached a maturity to be confidently applied to real-life complex problems. Successful application of MAS methods for behavior modeling, strategic…
Industrial Symbiotic Networks as Coordinated Games
Vahid Yazdanpanah, Devrim Murat Yazan, Henk Zijm
We present an approach for implementing a specific form of collaborative industrial practices-called Industrial Symbiotic Networks (ISNs)-as MC-Net cooperative games and address th…
Industrial Symbiotic Relations as Cooperative Games
Vahid Yazdanpanah, Devrim Murat Yazan
In this paper, we introduce a game-theoretical formulation for a specific form of collaborative industrial relations called "Industrial Symbiotic Relation (ISR) games" and provide…
Quantified Degrees of Group Responsibility (Extended Abstract)
Vahid Yazdanpanah, Mehdi Dastani
This paper builds on an existing notion of group responsibility and proposes two ways to define the degree of group responsibility: structural and functional degrees of responsibil…
