Equilibrium transitions in finite populations of players

J. Miękisz (2006)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

We discuss stochastic dynamics of finite populations of individuals playing symmetric games. We review recent results concerning the dependence of the long-run behavior of such systems on the number of players and the noise level. In the case of two-player games with two symmetric Nash equilibria, when the number of players increases, the population undergoes multiple transitions between its equilibria.

Market clearing price and equilibria of the progressive second price mechanism

Patrick Maillé (2007)

RAIRO - Operations Research

Similarity:


The Progressive Second Price mechanism (PSP), recently introduced by Lazar and Semret to share an infinitely-divisible resource among users through pricing, has been shown to verify very interesting properties. Indeed, the incentive compatibility property of that scheme, and the convergence to an efficient resource allocation where established, using the framework of . Therefore, that auction-based allocation and pricing scheme seems particularly well-suited to solve congestion problems...

Test, Teachers, Quorum (Pure Populations)

Radev, Slavian (2013)

Serdica Journal of Computing

Similarity:

The “trial and error” method is fundamental for Master Minddecision algorithms. On the basis of Master Mind games and strategies weconsider some data mining methods for tests using students as teachers.Voting, twins, opposite, simulate and observer methods are investigated.For a pure data base these combinatorial algorithms are faster then manyAI and Master Mind methods. The complexities of these algorithms arecompared with basic combinatorial methods in AI. ACM Computing Classification...

Evolving small-board Go players using coevolutionary temporal difference learning with archives

Krzysztof Krawiec, Wojciech Jaśkowski, Marcin Szubert (2011)

International Journal of Applied Mathematics and Computer Science

Similarity:

We apply Coevolutionary Temporal Difference Learning (CTDL) to learn small-board Go strategies represented as weighted piece counters. CTDL is a randomized learning technique which interweaves two search processes that operate in the intra-game and inter-game mode. Intra-game learning is driven by gradient-descent Temporal Difference Learning (TDL), a reinforcement learning method that updates the board evaluation function according to differences observed between its values for consecutively...

Interval valued bimatrix games

Milan Hladík (2010)

Kybernetika

Similarity:

Payoffs in (bimatrix) games are usually not known precisely, but it is often possible to determine lower and upper bounds on payoffs. Such interval valued bimatrix games are considered in this paper. There are many questions arising in this context. First, we discuss the problem of existence of an equilibrium being common for all instances of interval values. We show that this property is equivalent to solvability of a certain linear mixed integer system of equations and inequalities....

Correlated equilibria in competitive staff selection problem

David M. Ramsey, Krzysztof Szajowski (2006)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

This paper deals with an extension of the concept of correlated strategies to Markov stopping games. The Nash equilibrium approach to solving nonzero-sum stopping games may give multiple solutions. An arbitrator can suggest to each player the decision to be applied at each stage based on a joint distribution over the players' decisions. This is a form of equilibrium selection. Examples of correlated equilibria in nonzero-sum games related to the staff selection competition in the case...

A game-theoretic model of social adaptation in an infinite population

A. Wieczorek, A. Wiszniewska (1999)

Applicationes Mathematicae

Similarity:

The paper deals with the question of existence and properties of equilibrated distributions of individual characteristics in an infinite population. General game-theoretic methods are applied and special attention is focused on the case of fitness functions depending only on the distance of an individual characteristic from a reference point and from the mean characteristics. Iterative procedures leading to equilibrated distributions are also considered.

Problems with classical models of sex-ratio evolution

Krzysztof Argasiński (2008)

Banach Center Publications

Similarity:

The classical theory of the sex-ratio evolution, known as the sex-ratio game, is based on the maximization of the number of grandchildren, treated as a fitness measure of a female producing offspring of the sex ratio that is coded in her genes. The theory predicts that it is more profitable to produce offspring with less numerous sex. We can find in the literature mutually exclusive conclusions based on this prediction: some textbooks say that populations with the equal number of sons...
