Bangalore , India July 2012 2 . Extensive Form

In the previous chapter, we have got introduced to strategic form games. In this chapter, we introduce extensive form games. The extensive form of a game represents a detailed and richly structured way to describe a game. This form was first proposed by von Neumann and Morgenstern [1] and was later refined by Kuhn [2]. The extensive form captures complete sequential play of a game. Specifically...

Indian Institute of Science Bangalore , India July 2012 Bayesian Mechanisms

Recall that we mentioned two possible routes to get around the Gibbard–Satterthwaite Impossibility Theorem. The first was to focus on restricted environments like the quasilinear environment, and the second one was to weaken the implementation concept and look for an SCF which is ex-post efficient, nondictatorial, and Bayesian incentive compatible. In this section, our objective is to explore t...

Welding Journal - July 2012

A skilled welder determines the weld joint penetration from his/her observation of the weld pool surface during the welding process. This paper addresses the characterization of the 3D weld pool surface in gas tungsten arc welding (GTAW), i.e., extracting a set of characteristic parameters from the 3D weld pool surface to determine the backside bead width that measures the degree of weld joint ...
