RESOURCE CONSTRAINT COOPERATIVE GAME WITH MONTE CARLO TREE SEARCH
A hybrid methodology of game theory and Monte Carlo Tree Search was developed and the hybrid methodology was tested with various case studies through the nurse scheduling problem to show that it was able to form Pareto front dominance solutions, finding feasible solutions that were optimal and …

Energy management of micro-grid using cooperative game theory
… by assigning a weight to each participant with cooperative game theory (CGT) approach using generalized Nash bargaining solution (GNBS). The proposed approach achieves a fair (reasonable or just) profit allocation with negotiating power indicator. In this work, a case study of six different …

Explainable AI: A Unified Approach Based on Cooperative Game Theory
… thesis presents a unified framework based on cooperative game theory to systematically characterize and distinguish feature-based explanations. By integrating functional ANOVA decompositions with the Möbius transform (MT) and Shapley Interactions (SIs) from cooperative game theory, we bridge …

Cooperative Game Theory and Non-convex Optimization Analysis of Spectrum Sharing
… spectrum sharing problem from two perspectives: cooperative game theory and non-convex optimization. We develop a cooperative game theory model to analyze a scenario where nodes in a multi-hop wireless network need to agree on a fair allocation of spectrum. We show that in high interference …

Essays in Bargaining and Cooperative Game Theory with an Application to Environmental Negotiations
… rational choice of cooperating. Bargaining and Cooperative Game Theory are the two principal frameworks that are used by economists to investigate this puzzling but fascinating problem. In particular, if the latter proposes solutions to hypothetical bargaining problems according to normative …

A Cooperative Game Theory Approach for Cost Allocation in Complex Water Resource Systems
… of water services cost allocation based on Cooperative Game Theory, which can be a very usable instrument for the decision makers in order to elaborate pricing policies for water resources systems, according to the principles of the Directive 2000/60/EC. The validation of the methodology has …

Applications of game theory in microgrids
… This paper will explore the application of non-cooperative game and cooperative game in microgrids. For an individual microgrid that is connected with renewable energy sources through DC-DC converters, a non-cooperative game theory based PI controller tuning method is proposed to help make more …

Satisficing Theory and Non-Cooperative Games
Satisficing game theory is an alternative to traditional non-cooperative game theory which offers increased flexibility in modeling players' social interactions. However, satisficing players with conflicting attitudes may implement dysfunctional behaviors, leading to poor performance. In this …

Spectrum Auctions for Dynamic Spectrum Access Networks
… among homogeneous buyers of the spectrum as a noncooperative game and show the existence of a symmetric mixed strategy Nash equilibrium (SMSNE). We investigate the uniqueness of the SMSNE in some special cases and discuss the convergence to the unique SMSNE. Second, we prove that there exists an …

Toward Improved Classification of Imbalanced Data
… method for filtering over-sampled data using non-cooperative game theory. It addresses the imbalanced data issue by formulating the problem as a non-cooperative game. The proposed algorithm does not require any prior assumptions and selects representative synthetic instances while generating only …

A Game Theoretic Analysis of Agent -Mediated Resource Allocation
… responsible for obtaining services. By applying game-theoretic analysis to a proportionally fair divisible auction, we show the existence of a unique Nash equilibrium in both single and multiple resource settings. Locally stable decentralized negotiation algorithms are developed for both cases. …

Bargaining Theory
… the study of bargaining using the methods of non-cooperative game theory. In Part I (chapters 1 and 2) we examine the role of commitment in bilateral bargaining. Two different notions of commitment in bargaining are explored in two different non-cooperative infinite-time horizon sequential games …

Cooperative learning in educational gaming
This thesis analyzes Herbo Hunt, an educational game that aims to teach variables to students. By assigning unknown point values to creatures that must be caught in groups, we subtly encourage students to solve mental equations to achieve their goals. In addition to the formal study, the creation …

Multiagent Approaches to Enhance Learning and Trust in AI Systems
… spaces. Using frameworks such as extensive form games and multiagent reinforcement learning, this work demonstrates how regret minimization can serve as a unifying foundation for scalable learning. Contributions include a new interpretation of an existing Multiagent Reinforcement Learning (MARL) …
