We model and study the game mechanisms and human behavior of the anarchy mode in Twitch Plays Pokemon with a pure-jump continuous-time Markov process. We computed the winning probability and expected game time for 1 player and N players and identified when collaboration helps. A numerical plug-in example is also provided.

This paper studies the role of communication and reputation in market interactions using data from online procurement auctions. Not only positive reputation ratings but also engaging in communication increases a bidder’s probability of winning the auction. Messages are primarily used to reduce the asymmetric information associated with transactions. JEL Classifi cation: D44, D83, L14

The paper describes a simulation approach based on Saaty’s Analytic Hierarchy Process (AHP) to assess the probability of winning in sealed auctions where competing bids are assessed on a multiple criteria basis. It deals with the uncertainty associated with subjective and multiple assessments. Deuxième Congrès International Franco-Québécois de Génie Industriel ALBI 1997

The objective of this paper is to use data from the highest level in men's tennis to assess whether there is any evidence to reject the hypothesis that the two players in a match have a constant probability of winning each set in the match. The data consists of all 4883 matches of grand slam men's singles over a 10 year period from 1995 to 2004. Each match is categorised by its sequence of win ...

This article mainly uses data from October 2009 to September 2022 of the gem board as research samples. Through empirical analysis explore implementation registration system’s influence on IPO first-day break probability, at same time, will appear market after former sentiment, listing and other indicators introducing model studies factors effect mechanism. The results show that system can sign...

How much does a fumble affect the probability of winning an American football game? How balanced should your offense be in order to increase the probability of winning by 10%? These are questions for which the coaching staff of National Football League teams have a clear qualitative answer. Turnovers are costly; turn the ball over several times and you will certainly lose. Nevertheless, what do...

We consider Markov decision processes (MDPs) with ω-regular specifications given as parity objectives. We consider the problem of computing the set of almost-sure winning states from where the objective can be ensured with probability 1. The algorithms for the computation of the almost-sure winning set for parity objectives iteratively use the solutions for the almost-sure winning set for Büchi...
