The Neurobiological Foundations of Valuation in Human Decision Making under Uncertainty

This chapter focuses on valuation in the context of choice under uncertainty. When valuation is a pursuit distinct from choice, values revealed through choice may be different from the valuations that emerge from the (choice-independent) computations. In m ...

Recent Research on Anidolic Daylighting Systems: Highly Reflective Coating Materials and Chronobiological Properties

Jean-Louis Scartezzini, Mirjam Münch, Friedrich Linhart, Stephen Wittkopf

Making daylight more available in buildings is highly desirable for reasons of energy efficiency, visual comfort, occupant well-being and health. The Anidolic Integrated Ceiling (AIC) is a highly efficient daylighting system, designed to gather and redirec ...

M-DPOP: Faithful distributed implementation of efficient social choice problems

Boi Faltings, Adrian Petcu, David C. Parkes

In the efficient social choice problem, the goal is to assign values, subject to side constraints, to a set of variables to maximize the total utility across a population of agents, where each agent has private information about its utility function. In th ...

'I pay enough taxes already!' Applying economic voting models to environmental referendums

Philippe Thalmann, Nicholas Bornstein

Objectives. Models of economic voting have rarely been applied to referendum votes. We fill this gap by testing citizens’ voting behavior on environmental policy in relation to their perception of the business cycle. Thus, the study examines the personal, ...

Handling Objects by Their Handles

Sahar El Khoury

This paper presents an efficient method to decide robust grasps given new objects using example-based learning. A robust grasp is a stable grasp, suitable for object manipulation. Adaptability to object manipulation is ensured by imitating the human choice ...

BB-M-DPOP: Structural Techniques for Budget-Balance in Distributed Implementations of Efficient Social Choice

Boi Faltings, Adrian Petcu, Wei Xue

We model social choice problems in which self interested agents with private utility functions have to agree on values for a set of variables subject to side constraints. The goal is to implement the efficient solution, maximizing the total utility across ...

Moving targets: Collective decisions and flexible choices in house-hunting ants

Roderich Gross

Many decisions involve a trade-off between commitment and flexibility. We show here that the collective decisions ants make over new nest sites are sometimes sufficiently flexible that the ants can change targets even after an emigration has begun. Our fin ...

Analysis of driver's response to real-time information in Switzerland

Michel Bierlaire, Michaël Clément Louis Ghislain Thémans

We present behavioral models designed to capture the response of drivers to real-time traffic information. In 2003, we have conducted a survey in Switzerland in order to collect both Revealed Preferences (RP) and Stated Preferences (SP) about choice decisi ...

Phase coexistence in a forecasting game

Matteo Marsili

Individual choices are either based on personal experience or on information provided by peers. The latter case causes individuals to conform to the majority in their neighbourhood. Such herding behaviour may be very efficient in aggregating disperse priva ...

Discrete choice models with multiplicative error terms

Michel Bierlaire

We propose a multiplicative specification of a discrete choice model that renders choice probabilities independent of the scale of the utility. The scale can thus be random with unspecified distribution. The model mostly outperforms the classical additive ...
