Embracing Fairness in Consumer Electricity Markets using an Automatic Market Maker
Shaun Sweeney, Chris King, Mark O'Malley +1
As consumer flexibility becomes expected, it is important that the market mechanisms which attain that flexibility are perceived as fair. We set out fairness issues in energy marke…
Reinforcement Learning with Adaptive Regularization for Safe Control of Critical Systems
Haozhe Tian, Homayoun Hamedmoghadam, Robert Shorten +1
Reinforcement Learning (RL) is a powerful method for controlling dynamic systems, but its learning mechanism can lead to unpredictable actions that undermine the safety of critical…
Tree Proof-of-Position Algorithms
Aida Manzano Kharman, Pietro Ferraro, Homayoun Hamedmoghadam +1
We present a novel class of proof-of-position algorithms: Tree-Proof-of-Position (T-PoP). This algorithm is decentralised, collaborative and can be computed in a privacy preserving…

Lixin Lin, Homayoun Hamedmoghadam, Robert Shorten +1
Vaccination campaigns have both direct and indirect effects that act to control an infectious disease as it spreads through a population. Indirect effects arise when vaccinated ind…
