چکیده

We discuss how the interaction between spam senders and e-mail users can be modelled as a two-player adversary game. We show how the resulting model can be used to predict the strategies that the two opponent communities will eventually adopt, and how it can be employed to tune anti-spam filters.

A Game-Theoretic Investigation of the Effect of Human Interactive Proofs on Spam E-mail

We show how a game-theoretic model of spam e-mailing, which we had introduced in previous work, can be extended to include the possibility of employing Human Interactive Proofs (hips) in conjunction with filters that classify incoming messages as legitimate or spam. Using our extended model, we show that making hips widely available to e-mail users will reduce the volume of spam on the Internet...

Game-Theoretic Approach for Pricing Decisions in Dual-Channel Supply Chain

In the current study, a dual-channel supply chain is considered containing one manufacturer and two retailers. It is assumed that the manufacturer and retailers have the same decision powers. A game-theoretic approach is developed to analyze pricing decisions under the centralized and decentralized scenarios. First, the Nash model is established to obtain the equilibrium decisions in the decent...

NGTSOM: A Novel Data Clustering Algorithm Based on Game Theoretic and Self- Organizing Map

Identifying clusters is an important aspect of data analysis. This paper proposes a noveldata clustering algorithm to increase the clustering accuracy. A novel game theoretic self-organizingmap (NGTSOM ) and neural gas (NG) are used in combination with Competitive Hebbian Learning(CHL) to improve the quality of the map and provide a better vector quantization (VQ) for clusteringdata. Different ...

Combination of real options and game-theoretic approach in investment analysis

Investments in technology create a large amount of capital investments by major companies. Assessing such investment projects is identified as critical to the efficient assignment of resources. Viewing investment projects as real options, this paper expands a method for assessing technology investment decisions in the linkage existence of uncertainty and competition. It combines the game-theore...

A Game Theoretic Approach for Sustainable Power Systems Planning in Transition

Intensified industrialization in developing countries has recently resulted in huge electric power demand growth; however, electricity generation in these countries is still heavily reliant on inefficient and traditional non-renewable technologies. In this paper, we develop an integrated game-theoretic model for effective power systems planning thorough balancing between supply and demand for e...
