Incentive Design for Rational Agents

open access: yesProceedings of the TwentyFirst International Conference on Principles of Knowledge Representation and Reasoning
We introduce Incentive Design: a new class of problems for equilibrium verification in multi-agent systems. In our model, agents attempt to maximize their utility functions, which are expressed as formulae in LTL[F], a quantitative extension of Linear Temporal Logic with functions computable in polynomial time.

Multiprincipals Multiagents Incentive Design [PDF]

open access: yesSSRN Electronic Journal, 2000
The authors study the design of incentives through contractual arrangements in a model consisting of two ex ante identical principal-agent pairs. The notion of an epsilon contracting equilibrium has been introduced to predict the outcome of the principals contract game, which enables to approximate the discontinuities of payoff functions.

Incentive-Compatible Experimental Design [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the Sixteenth ACM Conference on Economics and Computation, 2015
We consider the design of experiments to evaluate treatments that are administered by self-interested agents, each seeking to achieve the highest evaluation and win the experiment. For example, in an advertising experiment, a company wishes to evaluate two marketing agents in terms of their efficacy in viral marketing, and assign a contract to the ...

Designing incentives for Boolean games

open access: yesInternational Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2011
Boolean games are a natural, compact, and expressive class of logic-based games, in which each player exercises unique control over some set of Boolean variables, and has some logical goal formula that it desires to be achieved. A player's strategy set is the set of all possible valuations that may be made to its variables.

Incentive-Centered Design for Security [PDF]

open access: yesIEEE Security & Privacy Magazine, 2009
Security problems are incentives problems: we build defenses because people want to do things that (intentionally or inadvertently) cause harm. Yet, much research disregards systematic study of the motivations of smart, responsive, autonomous humans in the loop. Meanwhile, the maturing sciences of motivated behavior offer a growing body of theoretical,
