Benchmarking hybrid algorithms for distributed constraint optimisation games
In this paper, we consider algorithms for distributed constraint optimisation problems (DCOPs). Using a potential game characterisation of DCOPs, we decompose six distributed DCOP...

Minimising Decision Tree Size as Combinatorial Optimisation
Decision tree induction techniques attempt to find small trees that fit a training set of data. This preference for smaller trees, which provides a learning bias, is often justifie...

A Hybrid Continuous Max-Sum Algorithm for Decentralised Coordination
Abstract. In this paper we tackle the problem of coordinating multiple decentralised agents with continuous state variables. Specifically we propose a hybrid approach, which combin...
