non-alcoholic steatohepatitis (nash) is a disease of unknown origin characterized histologically by alcoholic-like liver injury in the absence in the absence of significant alcohol intake. this study was conducted to assess the clinical and pathological features of nash patients in iran. patients with elevated liver transaminases, negative serologic markers of viral or autoimmune hepatitis and ...

This paper is an addendum to the ‘Unilateralist’s Curse’ paper of Nick Bostrom, Thomas Douglas and Anders Sandberg [BDS12]. It demonstrates that if there are identical agents facing a situation where any one of them can implement a policy unilaterally, then the best strategies they can implement are also Nash equilibriums. It also notes that if this Nash equilibrium involves probabilistic react...

We consider autonomous racing of two cars and present an approach to formulate the decision making as a non-cooperative non-zero-sum game. The game is formulated by restricting both players to fulfill static track constraints as well as collision constraints which depend on the combined actions of the two players. At the same time the players try to maximize their own progress. In the case wher...

modelling and forecasting stock market is a challenging task for economists and engineers since it has a dynamic structure and nonlinear characteristic. this nonlinearity affects the efficiency of the price characteristics. using an artificial neural network (ann) is a proper way to model this nonlinearity and it has been used successfully in one-step-ahead and multi-step-ahead prediction of di...

metabolome analysis is used to evaluate the characteristics and interactions of low molecular weight metabolites under a specific set of conditions. in cirrhosis, hepatocellular carcinoma, non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (nafld) and non-alcoholic steatotic hepatitis (nash) the  liver  does not function thoroughly due to long-term damage. unfortunately the early detection of cirrhosis, hcc, na...

The strategic pricing decisions of assembly products in assembly products supply chain are studied in this paper. Firstly, a two-stage assembly products supply chain model is developed. By building Nash game model, the Nash equilibrium solution of pricing strategy of supplier and assemblers is obtained. Next, a union decision model is built to analyze the optimal combination pricing strategy of...

This paper studies how to form an efficient coalition—a group of people. More specifically, we compare two mechanisms for forming a coalition by running laboratory experiment and reveal which mechanism leads higher social surplus. In one setting, invite the subjects join meeting simultaneously, so they cannot know other subjects’ decisions. ask them sequentially, allows each subject his or her ...

Model-free learning for multi-agent stochastic games is an active area of research. Existing reinforcement algorithms, however, are often restricted to zero-sum games, and applicable only in small state-action spaces or other simplified settings. Here, we develop a new data efficient Deep-Q-learning methodology model-free Nash equilibria general-sum games. The algorithm uses local linear-quadra...
