Abstract The Orienteering Problem (OP) has received a lot of attention in the past few
decades. The OP is a routing problem in which the goal is to determine a subset of nodes to …

Many real-world applications can be described as large-scale games of imperfect
information. To deal with these challenging domains, prior work has focused on computing …

The integration of optimization methodologies with computational analyses/simulations has
a profound impact on the product design. Such integration, however, faces multiple …

Fictitious play is a popular game-theoretic model of learning in games. However, it has
received little attention in practical applications to large problems. This paper introduces two …

We consider an autonomous vehicle-target assignment problem where a group of vehicles
are expected to optimally assign themselves to a set of targets. We introduce a game …

Game theory has been employed traditionally as a modeling tool for describing and
influencing behavior in societal systems. Recently, game theory has emerged as a valuable …

We consider multi-player repeated games involving a large number of players with large
strategy spaces and enmeshed utility structures. In these ldquolarge-scalerdquo games …

Stigmergy (the coordination of agents through signs they make and sense in a shared
environment) was originally articulated in the study of social insects. Its basic processes are …

It is known that every discrete-time fictitious play process approaches equilibrium in
nondegenerate 2× 2 games, and that every continuous-time fictitious play process …

This paper tackles the problem of real-time optimal control of traffic flow in a freeway network
deployed with coordinated and integrated traffic controllers. One promising approach to this …
