A Dynamic Logic of Agency I: STIT, Capabilities and Powers
The aim of this paper, is to provide a logical framework for reasoning about actions, agency, and powers of agents and coalitions in game-like multi-agent systems. First we define ...

Throughput-Efficient Dynamic Coalition Formation in Distributed Cognitive Radio Networks
We formulate the problem of distributed throughput-efficient sensing in cognitive radio (CR) networks as a dynamic coalition formation game based on a Markovian model. The propose...

Dynamics of Profit-Sharing Games
An important task in the analysis of multiagent systems is to understand how groups of selfish players can form coalitions, i.e., work together in teams. In this paper, we study t...

Optimizing coalition formation for tasks with dynamically evolving rewards and nondeterministic action effects
We consider a problem domain where coalitions of agents are formed in order to execute tasks. Each task is assigned at most one coalition of agents, and the coalition can be reorg...

A game theoretical approach for image denoising
How to adaptively choose optimal neighborhoods is very important to pixel-domain image denoising algorithms since too many neighborhoods may cause over-smooth artifacts and too fe...

A Coalition Formation Game in Partition Form for Peer-to-Peer File Sharing Networks
In current peer-to-peer file sharing networks, a large number of peers with heterogeneous connections simultaneously seek to download resources, e.g., files or file fragments, from...

Broadcast Encryption with Multiple Trust Authorities
Abstract. In this paper we extend the notion of hierarchical identitybased encryption with wildcards (WIBE) from the domain of a single Trusted Authority (TA) to a setting with mul...

Cooperative Games with Overlapping Coalitions
In the usual models of cooperative game theory, the outcome of a coalition formation process is either the grand coalition or a coalition structure that consists of disjoint coali...

Reasoning About the Transfer of Control
We present DCL-PC: a logic for reasoning about how the abilities of agents and coalitions of agents are altered by transferring control from one agent to another. The logical foun...

Methods for Task Allocation via Agent Coalition Formation
Task execution in multi-agent environments may require cooperation among agents. Given a set of agents and a set of tasks which they have to satisfy, we consider situations where ...
