In this paper, we study a particular subclass of partially observable models, called quasi-deterministic partially observable Markov decision processes (QDET-POMDPs), characterize...
Combinatorial auctions have been studied by the multiagent systems community for some time, since these auctions are an effective mechanism for resource allocation when agents are...
