Decision-Making under Group Commitment

چکیده
Coordination is essential for establishing and sustaining teamwork. Agents in a team must agree on their tasks plans, thus, group decision-making techniques are necessary to reach agreements teams. For instance, joint task, the agents can provide preferences alternative tasks, best could be selected by majority. Previous works assumed that only alternatives. However, when selecting task teamwork, it consider not of agents, but also probability being able execute if selected. In this paper, we propose novel model, decIsion-MAking under Group commItmeNt modEl (IMAGINE), computing optimal decision considering several parameters. Each agent provides: (1) utility each team, (2) associated cost executing alternative, (3) will task. The IMAGINE gathers these data from as well requisite quorum which minimum number required complete successfully. Given information, determines group. We evaluated comparing baseline method does requirement. show generally comes up with better than higher quorum, decisions makes are.

Group Decision Making under Vagueness
We report results of an experiment in which participants provided certainty equivalents for 15 risky or vague (with imprecise probabilities) two-outcome gambles. Participants made their decisions in three different settings: a) individually without prior social interactions, b) individually after discussing decisions with other participants and c) in groups of three. We also manipulated the deg...
متن کاملGroup Decision Making Under Stress
Understanding the processes by which task groups function is a major concern of social psychologists who study small groups. Equally important to the applied group researcher is the understanding of how group processes are altered by the external environment. Research suggests that organizations respond to stress with a centralization of authority so that decision making becomes concentrated in...
متن کاملEscalation of Commitment in Individual and Group Decision Making
Previous research (cf. B. M. Staw, Academy of Management Review, 1981, 6, 577-587) has found that when managers are given negative feedback on an initial individual investment decision, they allocate more additional funds to that investment if they, rather than another member of their organization, made the initial allocation decision. Justification is thought to underlie this phenomenon. This ...
متن کاملCommitment Semantics for Sequential Decision Making under Reward Uncertainty
Cooperating agents can make commitments to help each other, but commitments might have to be probabilistic when actions have stochastic outcomes. We consider the additional complication in cases where an agent might prefer to change its policy as it learns more about its reward function from experience. How should such an agent be allowed to change its policy while still faithfully pursuing its...
متن کاملMaking Allocations Collectively: Iterative Group Decision Making under Uncertainty
Amajor challenge in the field of Multi-Agent Systems (MAS) is to enable autonomous agents to allocate tasks and resources efficiently. This paper studies an extended approach to a problem we refer to as the Collective Iterative Allocation (CIA) problem. This problem involves a group of agents that progressively refine allocations of teams to tasks. This paper considers the case where the perfor...
