DIMMACSS-Stage: a Distributed Intelligence Model for a Multi-Agent Control System using Simulink and the Stage robotic simulator
Bibliographic record
Abstract
DIMMACSS-Stage is a software framework used to control a multi-agent system within the Player/Stage robotic simulator using a controller designed in MATLAB’s Simulink. There is a lot of novel research being done that involves the control of a multi-agent system, and a lot of this research uses robotic simulators, such as Player/Stage, to test and prove the validity of the controller. However, the current trend throughout the published research, even in the top journals and conferences, is that the software framework is constantly being designed from scratch over and over again, and there is little to no discussion regarding how it was actually designed. There are many problems associated with this situation; for example, the solutions are most likely not optimal in their time and space complexities, and there is no way to duplicate or replicate the experimental results of the published work. To this end, this paper provides a method, model, and design regarding how to specifically design a correct and optimal software framework to control a multi-agent system in the Stage robotic simulator using a controller designed in MATLAB’s Simulink. This paper also discusses why optimal solutions are important, and it provides all the information and details necessary to replicate and duplicate the DIMMACSS-Stage framework.

Full frame machine prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. The Gemma side is a direct model label for every work in the frame, read from the title-only record. The Codex side is a classifier learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and calibrated to design-weighted sample rates; fields without enough sample support carry no Codex call. Candidate is the union of the two sides; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one source (direct Gemma or distilled Codex), not a consensus.
