The aggregation of individuals’ preferences into a single group outcome is both well-studied and fundamental within decision theory. Historically, though, a pervasive simplifica...

The aggregation of conflicting preferences is a central problem in multiagent systems. The key difficulty is that the agents may report their preferences insincerely. Mechanism de...
Mechanism design is the study of preference aggregation protocols that work well in the face of self-interested agents. We present the first general-purpose techniques for automa...
