Natural Rules for Optimal Debates
نویسنده
چکیده
Two players hold contradicting positions regarding a given issue, which depends on a (fixed) number of aspects or criteria they both know. Suppose, as a third-party, that you want to make a decision based on what will report the players. Unfortunately, what the players can communicate is limited. How should you design the rules of your protocol so as to minimize the mistakes induced by these communication constraints? This paper discusses this model originally due to [2] in a specific case variant, and introduces preliminary results of a combinatorial exploration of this problem.

Efficient quadrature rules for a class of cordial Volterra integral equations: A comparative study
A natural algorithm with an optimal order of convergence is proposed for numerical solution of a class of cordial weakly singular Volterra integral equations. The equations of this class appear in heat conduction problems with mixed boundary conditions. The algorithm is based on a representation of the solution and compound Gaussian quadrature rules with graded meshes. A comparative stud...
متن کاملThe Theory of Optimal Taxation: What Is the Policy Relevance?
The paper discusses the implications of optimal tax theory for the debates on uniform commodity taxation and neutral capital income taxation. While strong administrative and political economy arguments in favor of uniform and neutral taxation remain, recent advances in optimal tax theory suggest that the information needed to implement the differentiated taxation prescribed by optimal tax theor...
متن کاملAnalyzing ways of transition in the pattern of urban growth
Today each city due to natural limitations, facilities and planning policies has different growth pattern which according to its spread, has different consequences and results. Although there is a wide range of urban growth patterns, but the important thing is not diversity and number of models but is the absence of rules and methods of transition from one to another pattern (form). So this art...
متن کاملOptimal Policy Rules for Iran in a DSGE Framework (Islamic Musharakah Approach)
The aim of this paper is determination of an optimal policy rule for Iranian economy from an Islamic perspective. This study draws on an Islamic instrument known as the Musharakah contract to design a dynamic stochastic general equilibrium model. In this model the interest rate is no longer considered as a monetary policy instrument and the focus is on the impact of economic shocks on the Dynam...
متن کاملDebates and Decisions: On a Rationale of Argumentation Rules
Ž We view a debate as a mechanism by which an uninformed decision maker the . listener extracts information from two informed debaters, who hold contradicting positions regarding the right decision. During the debate, the debaters raise arguments and, based on these arguments, the listener reaches a conclusion. Using a simple example, we investigate the mechanism design problem of constructing ...
