GANGSTER: An Automated Negotiator Applying Genetic Algorithms
نویسندگان
چکیده
Negotiation is an essential skill for agents in a multiagent system. Much work has been published on this subject, but traditional approaches assume negotiators are able to evaluate all possible deals and pick the one that is best according to some negotiation strategy. Such an approach fails when the set of possible deals is too large to analyze exhaustively. For this reason the Annual Negotiating Agents Competition of 2014 has focused on negotiations over very large agreement spaces. In this paper we present a negotiating agent that explores the search space by means of a Genetic Algorithm. It has participated in the competition successfully and finished in 2nd and 3rd place in the two categories of the competition respectively.

متن کاملDesigning an automated negotiator: learning what to bid and when to stop
In this paper, the ongoing research of the author on designing an automated negotiator is described. One of the key challenges of designing a successful negotiation agent is that usually only limited information is available about the other party. Therefore, we need to combine various learning techniques to decide what offers to make, and when to accept. Our goal is to investigate techniques fo...
