A robust deception-free coalition formation model

In the last few years coalition formation algorithms have been proposed as a possible way of modeling autonomous agent cooperation in multi-agent systems. This work is based on a previously proposed coalition formation model founded on game theory for a ...

This article addresses the coalition formation problem in a multi-agent context where agents plan their activities dynamically and use these plans to coordinate their actions and form suitable coalitions. In most coalition formation methods, when ...

Cooperation is the fundamental underpinning of multi-agent systems, allowing agents to interact to achieve their goals. Where agents are self-interested, or potentially unreliable, there must be appropriate mechanisms to cope with the uncertainty that ...
