Trust in an N-Player Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma

چکیده

The iterated Prisoner's Dilemma (iPD) is a standard problem for the evolution of cooperation. Published work so far dealt mainly with the 2-player case, which is neither very realistic nor very relevant for applications , as societies, in a general sense, usually are made of more than two agents. We present novel results where cooperation co-evolves with trust in an N-player iPD. In doing so, trust is expressed by group-formation, i.e., agents evolve preferences for other agents with certain markers.

Genetic Algorithms and Evolutionary Games

Genetic algorithms (GAs) have been used widely in evolving game-playing strategies since the mid-1980's. This paper looks at a particular game | the iterated prisoner's dilemma game, which is of interest to many economists, social scientists, evolutionary computation researchers and computer scientists. The paper describes a computational approach which uses a GA to evolve strategies for the 2 ...

Evolution of Continuous Degrees of Cooperation in an N-Player Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma

The iterated prisoner's dilemma (iPD) in its standard form is a very well known, popular basis for research on cooperation. Here, a signiicant generalization of the iPD is presented in form of a N-player game, instead of only two players, with continuous degrees of cooperation, instead of binary cooperation or defection. This continuous N-player PD (CN-PD) is motivated and explained by an actua...

An Experimental Study of N-Person Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma Games

The Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma game has been used extensively in the study of the evolution of cooperative behaviours in social and biological systems. There have been a lot of experimental studies on evolving strategies for 2-player Iterated Prisoner’s Dilemma games (2IPD). However, there are many real world problems, especially many social and economic ones, which cannot be modelled by the 2...

A Trust Model of E-commerce Based on Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma Game

Along with fierce e-commerce market competitions, some sellers may be worried about losing their customers so they bribe advisors by material means. The behavior of the advisor not only depends on their intrinsic properties, but also depends on their motivation that they may provide untruthful information to obtain additional material reward. The balance between profit and information truth con...

Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma contains strategies that dominate any evolutionary opponent.

The two-player Iterated Prisoner's Dilemma game is a model for both sentient and evolutionary behaviors, especially including the emergence of cooperation. It is generally assumed that there exists no simple ultimatum strategy whereby one player can enforce a unilateral claim to an unfair share of rewards. Here, we show that such strategies unexpectedly do exist. In particular, a player X who i...
