Revealed preference, iterated belief revision and dynamic games

چکیده

In previous work (G. Bonanno, Rational choice and AGM belief revision, Artificial Intelligence, 2009) a semantics for AGM belief revision was proposed based on choice frames, borrowed from the rational choice literature. In this paper we discuss how to use choice frames to analyze extensive-form games. Given an extensive form with perfect recall, a choice frame can be used to represent a player’s initial beliefs and her disposition to change those beliefs when she is informed that it is her turn to move. When some players move more than once along some play of the game, the issue of iterated belief revision arises. We provide a semantics for iterated belief revision in terms of choice frames and provide an outline of how to use choice frames to analyze solution concepts for extensive-form games.

Dynamic Epistemic Characterizations for IERS

The iterated regret minimization solution exhibits the good qualitative behavior as that observed in experiments in many games that have proved problematic for Nash Equilibrium(NE). It is worthy exploring epistemic characterizations unearthing players’rationality for an algorithm of Iterated Eliminations Regret-dominated Strategy (IERS) related to the solution. In this paper, based on the dynam...

Proper belief revision and equilibrium in dynamic games

We present a theory of rationality in dynamic games in which players, during the course of the game, may revise their beliefs about the opponents’ utility functions. The theory is based upon the following three principles: (1) the players’ initial beliefs about the opponents’ utilities should agree on some profile u of utility functions, (2) every player should believe, at each of his informati...

A Dynamic Logic of Iterated Belief Change

In this paper we propose a general framework to study iterated changes of belief. Expansions, contractions and revisions are taken as actions which may be performed by an agent, resulting in a change of its beliefs. The syntax of the framework is given by a multi-modal language, containing modalities to reason about the agent's knowledge | representing its nondefeasible, veridical information |...

Learning by Erasing in Dynamic Epistemic Logic

This work provides a comparison of learning by erasing [1] and iterated epistemic update [2] as analyzed in dynamic epistemic logic (see e.g. [3]). We show that finite identification can be modelled in dynamic epistemic logic and that the elimination process of learning by erasing can be seen as iterated belief-revision modelled in dynamic doxastic logic.

Iterated Belief Contraction from First Principles

Importance of contraction for belief change notwithstanding, literature on iterated belief change has by and large centered around the issue of iterated belief revision, ignoring the problem of iterated belief contraction. In this paper we examine iterated belief contraction in a principled way, starting with Qualified Insertion, a proposal by Hans Rott. We show that a judicious combination of ...
