Different professional domains require high levels of physical performance alongside fast and accurate decision-making. Construction workers, police officers, firefighters, elite sports men and women, the military and emergency medical professionals are often exposed to hostile environments with limited options for behavioral coping strategies. In this (mini) review we use football refereeing a...

The leader-follower partially observed, multi-objective Markov game (LF-POMG) models a sequential decision making situation with two intelligent and adaptive decision makers, a leader and a follower, each of which can choose actions that affect the dynamics of the system and where these actions are selected on the basis of current and past but possibly inaccurate state observations. The decisio...

Game Theory has proven to be a useful tool for modelling decision problems in competitive and collaborative environments. Cooperative games, in turn, promote the bargaining and the formation of coalitions, and deals with problems as the redistribution of gained payo between members of coalitions. This paper introduces the concept of indistinguishability among players, providing constructive met...

Choice overload is a phenomenon that can frequently occur in online decision-making by individuals. In this paper, we explain the concept of choice overload and explore the causes of choice overload by contrasting the characteristics of two distinct types of individual decision-making: the traditional search-dominated decisionmaking and the modern processing-dominated decision-making. By compar...

Navigation in dynamic and uncertain environments in the absence of reliable environment map is challenging. In this study, we investigate the effectiveness of two variations of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) called Area Extended PSO (AEPSO) and Cooperative AEPSO (CAEPSO) in noisy environments in which the noise does not represent random noise originated from a single type of source but the c...

In this paper, we describe a decision support system for cooperative transportation planning in the German food industry where several manufacturing companies share their fleets to reduce transportation costs. Besides using vehicles of their fleets, there are different outsourcing options offered by logistics service providers, but these are muchmore expensive. The decision-making kernel of the...

maximum 200 words) Human behavior in virtual environments is commonly implemented as a finite state machine. This programming approach can be effective and challenging against human players, but its ability to realistically simulate the behavior of cooperative groups of soldiers is limited. This thesis covers the development of an agent-based system to control the behavior of infantry in 3D vir...

In this paper we propose a new method to evaluate the distribution of power between decision making bodies in the European Union. Conventional methods that measure the voting power of players, such as the Banzhaf, Johnston, Holler, and Shapley-Shubik indices, are insufficient for this purpose. They take no account, in an endogenous way, of the differences in the abilities of players to affect t...

Over the past few years, artificial intelligence (AI) has achieved great success in a variety of applications, such as image classification and recommendation systems. This often been by training machine learning models on static datasets, where inputs desired outputs are provided. However, we now seeing shift this paradigm. Instead from increasingly being trained through feedback their interac...
