Protocols for belief merge: Reaching agreement via communication
We investigate the issue of reaching doxastic agreement among the agents of a group by “sharing” information via successive acts of sincere, persuasive and public communication within the group. The topic relates to “preference aggregation” in Social Choice theory, where the problem is to find a natural and fair merge operation for aggregating the agents’ preferences into a single group prefere...
متن کاملTalking Your Way into Agreement: Belief Merge by Persuasive Communication
As usually considered in Social Choice theory, the problem of preference aggregation is to find a natural and fair “merge” operation (subject to various naturalness or fairness conditions), for aggregating the agents’ preferences into a single group preference. Depending on the stringency of the required fairness conditions, one can obtain either an Impossibility theorem (e.g Arrows theorem [2]...
متن کاملAgent Interaction via Message-Based Belief Communication
This work reflects continued research into “temporally autonomous” multi-agent interaction. Many traditional approaches to modeling multi-agent systems involve synchronizing all agent activity in simulated environments to a single “universal’’ clock. In other words, agent behavior is regulated by a global timer where all agents act and interact deterministically in time. However, if the objecti...
متن کاملOn the Communication Complexity of Key-Agreement Protocols
Key-agreement protocols whose security is proven in the random oracle model are an important alternative to the more common public-key based key-agreement protocols. In the random oracle model, the parties and the eavesdropper have access to a shared random function (an “oracle”), but they are limited in the number of queries they can make to it. Unfortunately, as shown by Impagliazzo and Rudic...
متن کاملReaching Agreement over Ontology Alignments
When agents communicate, they do not necessarily use the same vocabulary or ontology. For them to interact successfully, they must find correspondences (mappings) between the terms used in their respective ontologies. While many proposals for matching two agent ontologies have been presented in the literature, the resulting alignment may not be satisfactory to both agents, and thus may necessit...
