Bilateral Agent Negotiation With Information-Seeking
نویسندگان
چکیده
We present a framework for bilateral negotiation between agents in a resource re-allocation setting. We adopt an agent model that, although simple in the interactions permitted, is fully generative and allows for information-seeking to accompany the negotiation. Each agent begins with beliefs as to which resources it has and desires for resources that it would like to have. We define the rules of the dialogues specifying the permissible messages, turn-taking and the order in which messages can be sent. The participants of the dialogues (i.e. the agents) adopt internal policies that enable them to conform to the dialogue rules whilst pursuing their individual desires. We also outline a number of properties

متن کاملImproving Agent Performance for Multi-Resource Negotiation Using Learning Automata and Case-Based Reasoning
In electronic commerce markets, agents often should acquire multiple resources to fulfil a high-level task. In order to attain such resources they need to compete with each other. In multi-agent environments, in which competition is involved, negotiation would be an interaction between agents in order to reach an agreement on resource allocation and to be coordinated with each other. In recent ...
متن کاملAgent-based bilateral multi-issue negotiation scheme for e-market transactions
Software agents are flexible, autonomous, and dynamic computational entities. For electronicmarket (emarket) applications, the wide variety of choices to the consumers has introduced the problem of information searching. Meanwhile, there are also so many issues for the participants that require negotiations to find the best deal. In this paper, we present a bilateral multi-issue negotiation sch...
متن کاملAn Adaptive Bilateral Negotiation Model Based on Bayesian Learning
Endowing the negotiation agent with a learning ability such that a more beneficial agreement might be obtained is increasingly gaining emphasis in agent negotiation. In this paper, we present a novel bilateral negotiation model based on Bayesian learning to enable self-interested agents to adapt negotiation strategies dynamically during the negotiation process. Specifically, we assume that two ...
متن کاملAbridgement of HANA: a Human-Aware Negotiation Architecture
HANA is an agent architecture suitable for multiple bilateral negotiations in realistic problems involving humans. The architecture deals with prenegotiation and provides a new search and negotiation technique where search and negotiation go hand in hand: the former providing offers to propose, and the later providing commitments for pruning the search space, and information for fine-tuning the...
