Player Capability and Locally Sub-Optimal Behavior in Strategic Games
… has surfaced many interesting phenomena on how strategic players interact in various game settings. In this thesis, I consider two topics in game theory. The research in both topics surfaces and characterizes interesting phenomena of how strategic players interact in game theoretic settings. The …

Towards a Neural Measure of Value and the Modelling of Choice in Strategic Games
… a model of the neural decision process in strategic games with a unique mixed strategy equilibrium. In such games, players face both an incentive to best-respond to valuations and to act unpredictably. Similarly, we model choice as the result of the interaction between action value and the …

Essays on Game Theory
… strategy equilibria with uncertainty aversion in strategic games. Experimental evidence has found a substantial discrepancy between the prediction of mixed-strategy Nash equilibrium and observed choice frequency. The quantal response equilibrium model of Mckelvey and Palfrey (1995) has been …

The effects of counterfactual comparison on learning and reasoning
… To peer into the components of these mechanisms, strategic games that emulate real-world situations provide measurable and manageable environments in which to examine slight differences in choice behavior among different people. Such differences may be endogenous to participants (e.g. age or …

Approximation algorithms for distributed and selfish agents
… and study the convergence of the corresponding games. In the following chapters, we study the speed of convergence to high quality solutions on (random) best-response paths of players. First, we study the average social value on best response paths in basic-utility, market sharing, and cut …
