This chapter introduces a novel framework for modeling interacting humans in a multi-stage game. This “iterated semi network-form game” framework has the following desirable characteristics: (1) Bounded rational players, (2) strategic players (i.e., players account for one another’s reward functions when predicting one another’s behavior), and (3) computational tractability even on real-world s...
