Fitting functional response surfaces to data: a best practice guide
Ecosphere, 2020 Describing how resource consumption rates depend on resource density, conventionally termed “functional responses,” is crucial to understanding the population dynamics of trophically interacting organisms.

Distributed Reconfiguration for Resilient Synchronization of Multi-Agent Systems
IEEE Access, 2021 The performance in output synchronization in multi-agent systems (MAS) can degrade in the presence of misbehaving agents that are affected by external attacker actions that try to desynchronize the system.

Solving quadratic multi-leader-follower games by smoothing the follower's best response [PDF]
Optim. Methods Softw., 2018 We analyse the existence of Nash equilibria for a class of quadratic multi-leader-follower games using the nonsmooth best response function. To overcome the challenge of nonsmoothness, we pursue a smoothing approach resulting in a reformulation as a ...

Best-Response Cycles in Perfect Information Games [PDF]
Mathematics of Operations Research, 2015 We consider n-player perfect information games with payoff functions having a finite image. We do not make any further assumptions, so in particular we refrain from making assumptions on the cardinality or the topology of the set of actions and assumptions like continuity or measurability of payoff functions.

Incentive-Based Control of Asynchronous Best-Response Dynamics on Binary Decision Networks
IEEE Transactions on Control of Network Systems, 2019 Various populations of interacting decision-making agents can be modeled by asynchronous best-response dynamics or, equivalently, linear threshold dynamics.

Relative Best Response Dynamics in finite and convex Network Games
IEEE Conference on Decision and Control, 2019 Motivated by theoretical and experimental economics, we propose novel evolutionary dynamics for games on networks, called the h-Relative Best Response (h–RBR) dynamics, that mixes the relative performance considerations of imitation dynamics with the ...

Evolutionary Network Games: Equilibria from Imitation and Best Response Dynamics
Complexity, 2017 We consider games of strategic substitutes and complements on networks and introduce two evolutionary dynamics in order to refine their multiplicity of equilibria.

A regulatory arbitrage game: Off-balance-sheet leverage and financial fragility
Journal of Mechanism and Institution Design, 2022 This study examines a simple banking system in a game-theoretic framework wherein banks act as self-interested agents to maximize leverage at the expense of overall financial stability.

Random responding from participants is a threat to the validity of social science research results
Frontiers in Psychology, 2011 Research in the social sciences often relies upon the motivation and goodwill of research participants (e.g., teachers, students, minimally-compensated volunteers) to do their best on low stakes assessments of the effects of interventions.
