Modeling Human Behavior in a Strategic Network Game with Complex Group Dynamics

Jonathan Skaggs, Jacob W. Crandall

Human networks greatly impact important societal outcomes, including wealth and health inequality, poverty, and bullying. As such, understanding human networks is critical to learn…

Predicting Plans and Actions in Two-Player Repeated Games

Najma Mathema, Michael A. Goodrich, Jacob W. Crandall

Artificial intelligence (AI) agents will need to interact with both other AI agents and humans. Creating models of associates help to predict the modeled agents' actions, plans, an…

E-HBA: Using Action Policies for Expert Advice and Agent Typification

Stefano V. Albrecht, Jacob W. Crandall, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

Past research has studied two approaches to utilise predefined policy sets in repeated interactions: as experts, to dictate our own actions, and as types, to characterise the behav…

An Empirical Study on the Practical Impact of Prior Beliefs over Policy Types

Stefano V. Albrecht, Jacob W. Crandall, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

Many multiagent applications require an agent to learn quickly how to interact with previously unknown other agents. To address this problem, researchers have studied learning algo…

Information Design in Crowdfunding under Thresholding Policies

Wen Shen, Jacob W. Crandall, Ke Yan +1

Crowdfunding has emerged as a prominent way for entrepreneurs to secure funding without sophisticated intermediation. In crowdfunding, an entrepreneur often has to decide how to di…

Regulating Highly Automated Robot Ecologies: Insights from Three User Studies

Wen Shen, Alanoud Al Khemeiri, Abdulla Almehrezi +3

Highly automated robot ecologies (HARE), or societies of independent autonomous robots or agents, are rapidly becoming an important part of much of the world's critical infrastruct…

Dynamic Pricing in Smart Grids under Thresholding Policies: Algorithms and Heuristics

Zaid Almahmoud, Jacob Crandall, Khaled Elbassioni +2

Minimizing the peak power consumption and matching demand to supply, under fixed threshold polices, are two key requirements for the success of the future electricity market. In th…

Belief and Truth in Hypothesised Behaviours

Stefano V. Albrecht, Jacob W. Crandall, Subramanian Ramamoorthy

There is a long history in game theory on the topic of Bayesian or "rational" learning, in which each player maintains beliefs over a set of alternative behaviours, or types, for t…

Non-myopic learning in repeated stochastic games

Jacob W. Crandall

In repeated stochastic games (RSGs), an agent must quickly adapt to the behavior of previously unknown associates, who may themselves be learning. This machine-learning problem is…

Learning in Repeated Games: Human Versus Machine

Fatimah Ishowo-Oloko, Jacob Crandall, Manuel Cebrian +2

While Artificial Intelligence has successfully outperformed humans in complex combinatorial games (such as chess and checkers), humans have retained their supremacy in social inter…
