Selfish Response to Epidemic Propagation

Jean-Yves Le Boudec, Georgios Theodorakopoulos

An epidemic spreading in a network calls for a decision on the part of the network members: They should decide whether to protect themselves or not. Their decision depends on the trade-off between their perceived risk of being infected and the cost of bein ...

Techniques for Program Synthesis

Régis William Blanc

Software synthesis is an attractive field of study that can promise a more safe and productive software development process. However, it is notoriously very difficult and few convincing applications have emerged so far. In this report, we present a series ...

Price Theory in Economics

Thomas Alois Weber

This article describes how prices are treated in economic theory. Section 17.2 begins by introducing the concepts of ‘rational preference’ and ‘utility function’, which are standard building blocks of models that attempt to explain choice behaviour. Sectio ...

Spatiotemporal Brain Signatures of Risk and Reward

Anjali Devi Vanapilli Nursimulu

Rational economics and finance surmise that choices decree from a conscious arbitration between alternatives based on decision-theoretically computed values. Implicit in the computation of these option values are the perception and integration of different ...

Revisiting reference point formation, gains-losses asymmetry and non-linear sensitivities with an emphasis on attribute specific treatment

Amanda Blomberg Stathopoulos

In contrast with expected utility theory, empirical findings indicate that decision-makers are sensitive to departures from reference points rather than states. Several tests of the reference-dependent preference framework have been carried out in experime ...

Demystifying Rational Financial Decision-Making

Anjali Devi Vanapilli Nursimulu

Is the human brain wired for wealth? The setting is the high-velocity financial environment. Undoubtedly, the development of sophisticated derivative instruments has improved the allocation of risk across economies, highlighting the nexus between banking a ...

Effective Usage of Computational Trust Models in Rational Environments

Karl Aberer, Hung Le Vu

Computational reputation-based trust models using statistical learning have been intensively studied for distributed systems where peers behave maliciously. However practical applications of such models in environments with both malicious and rational beha ...

Analyzing the Emergence of Semantic Agreement among Rational Agents

Karl Aberer, Zoltán Miklós

Todays complex online applications often require the interaction of multiple services that potentially belong to different business entities. Interoperability is a core element of such an environment, yet not a straightforward one. In this paper, we argue ...
