Multi-round Master-Worker Computing: a Repeated Game Approach

, 2015
We consider a computing system where a master processor assigns tasks for execution to worker processors through the Internet. We model the workers decision of whether to comply (compute the task) or not (return a bogus result to save the computation ...

Collusion in algorithmic pricing

, 2021
De senaste årens teknologiska utveckling har möjliggjort för autonoma agenter att utnyttja artificiell intelligens för att lära sig optimerade prispolicyer genom att interagera med marknaden. Både konkurrensmyndigheter och forskare har uttryckt oro för att autonoma prisoptimerande agenter som oberoende av varandra agerar på samma marknad kan lära sig ...

Accelerating m‐Invariance for Continuous Big Data Publishing

IEEJ Transactions on Electrical and Electronic Engineering, Volume 21, Issue 4, Page 568-579, April 2026.
To prevent personal information leakage from the collection and publication of big data, anonymization techniques that protect privacy while preserving data utility are essential. In particular, m‐invariance provides privacy protection for dynamic datasets that are continuously published as records are updated.

Regulation of Algorithmic Collusion

Proceedings of the Symposium on Computer Science and Law
Consider sellers in a competitive market that use algorithms to adapt their prices from data that they collect. In such a context it is plausible that algorithms could arrive at prices that are higher than the competitive prices and this may benefit sellers at the expense of consumers (i.e., the buyers in the market).

Supporting General Practitioners to Deprescribe Benzodiazepines and Z‐Drugs in Primary Care: Findings From a Modified Delphi Study

Basic &Clinical Pharmacology &Toxicology, Volume 138, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Long‐term use of benzodiazepines and Z‐drugs (collectively known as benzodiazepine receptor agonists; BZRAs) is associated with a range of adverse effects including dependence and withdrawal on stopping or reducing the dose. Deprescribing is recommended to improve patient outcomes and reduce medication‐related harm, but its implementation in ...

Interpolation and Approximation of Polynomials in Finite Fields over a Short Interval from Noisy Values

, 2014
Motivated by a recently introduced HIMMO key distribution scheme, we consider a modification of the noisy polynomial interpolation problem of recovering an unknown polynomial $f(X) \in Z[X]$ from approximate values of the residues of $f(t)$ modulo a ...

Corruption Detection Through Textual Analysis: Evidence From Eurozone Banks

Business Ethics, the Environment &Responsibility, Volume 35, Issue 2, Page 1017-1037, April 2026.
ABSTRACT This research investigates the disclosure of banking institutions by analyzing their annual reports to identify the determinants capable of signaling possible corruption scandals. A textual analysis was conducted on the financial reports of 42 Eurozone banks from the period 2013 to 2022.

Rational Fair Consensus in the GOSSIP Model

, 2017
The \emph{rational fair consensus problem} can be informally defined as follows. Consider a network of $n$ (selfish) \emph{rational agents}, each of them initially supporting a \emph{color} chosen from a finite set $ \Sigma$.

Who Pays Attention Matters: How Sociodemographics and News Engagement Shape Corporate Confidence in Canada

Canadian Journal of Administrative Sciences / Revue Canadienne des Sciences de l'Administration, Volume 43, Issue 1, March 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigates how news engagement frequency (NEF) and marginalized sociodemographic groups (i.e., visible minorities, woman, age (younger), income (lower), disability, and first‐generation status) influence public confidence in major corporations through weighted hierarchical multiple regression analyses of 26,492 Canadian ...
