A distributed algorithm for anytime coalition structure generation
A major research challenge in multi-agent systems is the problem of partitioning a set of agents into mutually disjoint coalitions, such that the overall performance of the system...

Stable partitions in coalitional games
We propose a notion of a stable partition in a coalitional game that is parametrized by the concept of a defection function. This function assigns to each partition of the grand c...

Coalition Structure Generation Utilizing Compact Characteristic Function Representations
This paper presents a new way of formalizing the Coalition Structure Generation problem (CSG), so that we can apply constraint optimization techniques to it. Forming effective coal...

An improved dynamic programming algorithm for coalition structure generation
Forming effective coalitions is a major research challenge in the field of multi-agent systems. Central to this endeavour is the problem of partitioning the set of agents into exh...

A Stable and Feasible Payoff Division for Coalition Formation in a Class of Task Oriented Domains
In the last few years the use of coalition formation algorithms in multi-agent systems has been proposed as a possible way of modelling autonomous agent cooperation. Game theory pr...
