This paper considers the advertising, pricing, and service decisions simultaneously to coordinate the supply chain with a manufacturer and a retailer. The amount of market demand is influenced by advertising, pricing and service decisions. In this paper, three well-known approaches to the game theory, including the Nash, the Stackelberg-retailer, and the cooperative game are exploited to study ...

in this paper, a novel hybrid model based on neural network and game theory is proposed to support the analyzers in oil market. in this model, first the neural network is utilized to learn the oil prices associated with opec production level and usa imports level. then the learned neural network is applied by a game model. finally the nash equilibrium points of the game present the optimum deci...

Least-squares methods have been successfully used for prediction problems in the context of reinforcement learning, but little has been done in extending these methods to control problems. This paper presents an overview of our research efforts in using least-squares techniques for control. In our early attempts, we considered a direct extension of the Least-Squares Temporal Difference (LSTD) a...

We investigate the evolution and survival of decision making strategies for the Deterrence Game in a population of interacting agents. The Deterrence Game is a sequential, two player game that is used to study how player preference orderings affect the outcome in situations of conflict. Although there are twenty-four possible player preference orderings, only five are given serious theoretical ...

Maybe an event can't be modeled completely through one game but there is more chance with several games. With emphasis on players' rationality, we present new properties of strategic games, which result in production of other games. Here, a new attitude to modeling will be presented in game theory as dynamic system of strategic games and its some applications such as analysis of the clash betwe...

game-based practicing of materials can be seen as a method of capturing an essence of real- life expe-rience which is commonly missing in the conventional face-to-face classrooms. to serve the l2 learn-ers' immediate communicative needs in wider classroom and societal contexts, this study sought to place l2 english learners within an interactional social framework through reinforcing their...

in this paper, a new approach based on game theory has been proposed to multi responses problem optimization. game theory is a useful tool for decision making in the conflict of interests between intelligent players in order to select the best joint strategy for them through selecting the best joint desirability. present research uses the game theory approach via definition of each response as ...

this paper shows how game theory can be applied to modeling the interaction between government and manufacturer in implementation of cleaner production. a generic game model based upon ‘two-person non-cooperative’ static game is created to allow various strategic actions being tested by stages, and aid decision making by selecting optimal strategy for both manufacturer and policy maker to reduc...
