GCS-Q: Quantum Graph Coalition Structure Generation
نویسندگان
چکیده
The problem of generating an optimal coalition structure for a given game rational agents is to find partition that maximizes their social welfare and known be NP-hard. Though there are algorithmic solutions with high computational complexity available this combinatorial optimization problem, it unknown whether quantum-supported may outperform classical algorithms. In paper, we propose novel solution generation in Induced Subgraph Games (ISGs). Our hybrid classical-quantum algorithm, called GCS-Q, iteratively splits n-agent graph into two nonempty subsets order obtain higher value. GCS-Q solves the split $$\mathcal {O}(n)$$ times, exploring {O}(2^n)$$ partitions at each step. particular, reformulated as QUBO executed on quantum annealer, which capable providing linear time respect n. We show outperforms currently best solvers ISGs its runtime $$n^2$$ expected approximation ratio $$93\%$$ standard benchmark datasets.

Graph Coalition Structure Generation
We give the first analysis of the computational complexity of coalition structure generation over graphs. Given an undirected graph G = (N,E) and a valuation function v : 2 → R over the subsets of nodes, the problem is to find a partition of N into connected subsets, that maximises the sum of the components’ values. This problem is generally NP–complete; in particular, it is hard for a defined ...
متن کاملOptimal Coalition Structure Generation in Cooperative Graph Games
Representation languages for coalitional games are a key research area in algorithmic game theory. There is an inherent tradeoff between how general a language is, allowing it to capture more elaborate games, and how hard it is computationally to optimize and solve such games. One prominent such language is the simple yet expressive Weighted Graph Games (WGGs) representation (Deng and Papadimit...
متن کاملBehavioral coalition structure generation
Coalition structures are partitions of agents, i.e., collections of pair-wise disjoint coalitions, called blocks, whose union yields the entire population. Given a coalitional game, assigning a worth to each coalition, the worth of coalition structures obtains as the sum of blocks’ worth. Optimal coalition structures have maximal worth. For generic coalitional game, searching optimal coalition ...
متن کاملApproximate Coalition Structure Generation
Coalition formation is a fundamental problem in multi-agent systems. In characteristic function games (CFGs), each coalition C of agents is assigned a value indicating the joint utility those agents will receive if C is formed. CFGs are an important class of cooperative games; however, determining the optimal coalition structure, partitioning of the agents into a set of coalitions that maximize...
