Mutual Information as Privacy-Loss Measure in Strategic Communication
Farhad Farokhi, Girish Nair
A game is introduced to study the effect of privacy in strategic communication between well-informed senders and a receiver. The receiver wants to accurately estimate a random vari…
Promoting Truthful Behaviour in Participatory-Sensing Mechanisms
Farhad Farokhi, Iman Shames, Michael Cantoni
In this paper, the interplay between a class of nonlinear estimators and strategic sensors is studied in several participatory-sensing scenarios. It is shown that for the class of…
Estimation with Strategic Sensors
Farhad Farokhi, Andre M. H. Teixeira, Cedric Langbort
We introduce a model of estimation in the presence of strategic, self-interested sensors. We employ a game-theoretic setup to model the interaction between the sensors and the rece…
A Necessary and Sufficient Condition for the Existence of Potential Functions for Heterogeneous Routing Games
Farhad Farokhi, Walid Krichene, Alexandre M. Bayen +1
We study a heterogeneous routing game in which vehicles might belong to more than one type. The type determines the cost of traveling along an edge as a function of the flow of var…
A Study of Truck Platooning Incentives Using a Congestion Game
Farhad Farokhi, Karl H. Johansson
We introduce an atomic congestion game with two types of agents, cars and trucks, to model the traffic flow on a road over various time intervals of the day. Cars maximize their ut…
Faithful Implementations of Distributed Algorithms and Control Laws
Takashi Tanaka, Farhad Farokhi, Cédric Langbort
When a distributed algorithm must be executed by strategic agents with misaligned interests, a social leader needs to introduce an appropriate tax/subsidy mechanism to incentivize…
