A Study of AI Population Dynamics with Million-agent Reinforcement Learning
We conduct an empirical study on discovering the ordered collective dynamics
obtained by a population of intelligence agents, driven by million-agent
reinforcement learning. Our intention is to put intelligent agents into a
simulated natural context and verify if the principles developed in the real
world could also be used in understanding an artificially-created intelligent
population. To achieve this, we simulate a large-scale predator-prey world,
where the laws of the world are designed by only the findings or logical
equivalence that have been discovered in nature. We endow the agents with the
intelligence based on deep reinforcement learning (DRL). In order to scale the
population size up to millions agents, a large-scale DRL training platform with
redesigned experience buffer is proposed. Our results show that the population
dynamics of AI agents, driven only by each agent's individual self-interest,
reveals an ordered pattern that is similar to the Lotka-Volterra model studied
in population biology. We further discover the emergent behaviors of collective
adaptations in studying how the agents' grouping behaviors will change with the
environmental resources. Both of the two findings could be explained by the
self-organization theory in nature.Comment: Full version of the paper presented at AAMAS 2018 (International

Measuring Value Understanding in Language Models through Discriminator-Critique Gap
Recent advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) have heightened concerns
about their potential misalignment with human values. However, evaluating their
grasp of these values is complex due to their intricate and adaptable nature.
We argue that truly understanding values in LLMs requires considering both
"know what" and "know why". To this end, we present the Value Understanding
Measurement (VUM) framework that quantitatively assesses both "know what" and
"know why" by measuring the discriminator-critique gap related to human values.
Using the Schwartz Value Survey, we specify our evaluation values and develop a
thousand-level dialogue dataset with GPT-4. Our assessment looks at both the
value alignment of LLM's outputs compared to baseline answers and how LLM
responses align with reasons for value recognition versus GPT-4's annotations.
We evaluate five representative LLMs and provide strong evidence that the
scaling law significantly impacts "know what" but not much on "know why", which
has consistently maintained a high level. This may further suggest that LLMs
might craft plausible explanations based on the provided context without truly
understanding their inherent value, indicating potential risks
Predication Method for China’s Civil Aviation Fuel Consumption
With the China’s civil aviation industry gradual market-oriented and the rapid development of China’s economy, China’s civil aviation transportation fuel consumption has grown significantly in nearly past three decades. Therefore, it’s a very important strategic significance of the prediction of China’s civil aviation transportation fuel consumption. In this paper, gray system and neural network approach, combined with China’s civil aviation industry 1980-2010 total traffic volume of the data, we establish gray system GM (1,1) model and BP neural network model for civil aviation transport volume. Training and simulation of the back propagation neutral network model and the gray system GM(1,1) used MATLAB. BP neural network modeling takes into account in three factors: the number of aircraft aviation industry, flight hours and total turnover. The fitting precision of the gray system GM(1,1) model is 64.2% while the fitting precision of the back propagation neutral network model is 90.16%. Thus, the back propagation neutral network model is better for estimating Civil aviation fuel consumption
ab-plane tilt angles in REBCO conductors
Critical current (Ic) of REBCO tapes is strongly aniso-tropic with respect to
the orientation of the magnetic field. Usually, Ic is at maximum when the
ab-plane of the REBCO crystal is parallel to the magnetic field. In commercial
REBCO tapes, it is commonly assumed that the ab-plane is coincide with the tape
plane. While in fact, the ab-plane is near but slightly tilted from the tape
plane in the transverse direction. To accurately measure Ic as a function of
the field angle {\theta} , which is defined as the angle between ab-plane and
the magnetic field direction, and to design and fabricate REBCO mag-net coils
based on the measured Ic(angle), it is important to measure the tilt angle. In
this work, we used x-ray diffraction (XRD) to measure the tilt angles at room
temperature for a large number of REBCO conductors made by SuperPower Inc.
Transmission electron mi-croscopy (TEM) was also used to investigate the origin
of this tilt. The measured data are presented, and the measurement uncer-tainty
is discussed.Comment: 4 pages, 7 figure
