Analysis of Iterative Process for Nauru Voting System

Analysis of Equilibria in Iterative Voting Schemes

Following recent studies of iterative voting and its effects on plurality vote outcomes, we provide characterisations and complexity results for three models of iterative voting under the plurality rule. Our focus is on providing a better understanding regarding the set of equilibria attainable by iterative voting processes. We start with the basic model of plurality voting. We first establish ...

analysis of ruin probability for insurance companies using markov chain

در این پایان نامه نشان داده ایم که چگونه می توان مدل ریسک بیمه ای اسپیرر اندرسون را به کمک زنجیره های مارکوف تعریف کرد. سپس به کمک روش های آنالیز ماتریسی احتمال برشکستگی ، میزان مازاد در هنگام برشکستگی و میزان کسری بودجه در زمان وقوع برشکستگی را محاسبه کرده ایم. هدف ما در این پایان نامه بسیار محاسباتی و کاربردی تر از روش های است که در گذشته برای محاسبه این احتمال ارائه شده است. در ابتدا ما نشا...

Learning Agents for Iterative Voting

This paper assesses the learning capabilities of agents in a situation of collective choice. Each agent is endowed with a private preference concerning a number of alternative candidates, and participates in an iterated plurality election. Agents get rewards depending on the winner of each election, and adjust their voting strategy using reinforcement learning. By conducting extensive simulatio...

Convergence of iterative voting

In multiagent systems, social choice functions can help aggregate the distinct preferences that agents have over alternatives, enabling them to settle on a single choice. Despite the basic manipulability of all reasonable voting systems, it would still be desirable to find ways to reach a stable result, i.e., a situation where no agent would wish to change its vote. One possibility is an iterat...
