Emergent service provisioning and demand estimation through self-organizing agent communities
A major challenge within open markets is the ability to satisfy service demand with an adequate supply of service providers, especially when such demand may be volatile due to cha...

Decentralised coordination of continuously valued control parameters using the max-sum algorithm
In this paper we address the problem of decentralised coordination for agents that must make coordinated decisions over continuously valued control parameters (as is required in m...

Stable multi-project scheduling of airport ground handling services by heterogeneous agents
This paper addresses decentralized multi-project scheduling under uncertainty. The problem instance we study is the scheduling of airport ground handling services, where aircraft ...

Generalization risk minimization in empirical game models
Experimental analysis of agent strategies in multiagent systems presents a tradeoff between granularity and statistical confidence. Collecting a large amount of data about each s...

Stronger CDA strategies through empirical game-theoretic analysis and reinforcement learning
We present a general methodology to automate the search for equilibrium strategies in games derived from computational experimentation. Our approach interleaves empirical game-the...

Combinatorial prediction markets for event hierarchies
We study combinatorial prediction markets where agents bet on the sum of values at any tree node in a hierarchy of events, for example the sum of page views among all the children...

SarsaLandmark: an algorithm for learning in POMDPs with landmarks
Reinforcement learning algorithms that use eligibility traces, such as Sarsa(λ), have been empirically shown to be effective in learning good estimated-state-based policies in pa...

Context-aware multi-stage routing
In context-aware route planning, a set of agents has to plan routes on a common infrastructure and each agent has to plan a conflict-free route from a source to a destination wit...

Distributed constraint optimization with structured resource constraints
Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) provides a framework for coordinated decision making by a team of agents. Often, during the decision making, capacity constraints on age...
