| Abstract | The aim of our research is to understand and automate the mechanisms by which language can emerge among artificial, knowledge-based and rational agents. We want to design and implement agents that, upon encountering other agent(s) with which they do not share an agent communication language, are able to initiate creation of, and further are able to evolve and enrich, a mutually understandable communication language. Our research is supported by the principled methodology of designing rational, socially competent artificial agents based on Bayesian probability and decision theories, and on the research in linguistics and cognitive psychology that addresses the issues of function, mechanisms, development, and evolutionary history of natural languages. In our work, we express some of the key insights obtained in linguistics and cognitive science in formal terms of decision theory and game-theoretic. mechanism design. We propose that the evolution of an agent communication language can be accomplished by the mechanism of negotiation, developed in economics and game theory, and automated in recent work in artificial intelligence. Negotiation is suitable because it can be mapped to settings in which rational interacting agents could use communication for their mutual, yet selfish, benefits. The agents can make mutually beneficial agreements that will allow efficient communication, but they have a conflict of interest about which language constructs to use each would prefer a communication language that is easier and less costly to use from their own individual perspective. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.

NDLI is a conglomeration of freely available or institutionally contributed or donated or publisher managed contents. Almost all these contents are hosted and accessed from respective sources. The responsibility for authenticity, relevance, completeness, accuracy, reliability and suitability of these contents rests with the respective organization and NDLI has no responsibility or liability for these. Every effort is made to keep the NDLI portal up and running smoothly unless there are some unavoidable technical issues.
Ministry of Education, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT), has sponsored and funded the National Digital Library of India (NDLI) project.
