متن کاملSocial Learning with Network Uncertainty
We consider the perfect Bayesian equilibrium of a model of social learning on networks where agents do not know the topology of the social network. Each agent receives a signal about an underlying state of the world, observes actions of her neighbors and subsequently chooses an action herself. The topology of the social network is drawn from a commonly known distribution but each agent only obs...
متن کاملApproaching Collaborative Modeling as an Uncertainty Reduction Process
Model-Driven Engineering (MDE) technologies aim to support the growing complexity of software systems. Models are increasingly becoming large and unmanageable, and hence difficult to be understood by humans and processed by machines. As a consequence, multi-user environments are necessary to enable designers to create and refine large models in a collaborative manner enabling the engineering, m...
