: The minisum and the minimax rules are two different rules for the election of a committee considered by Brams, Kilgour, and Sanver. As input they assume approval ballots from th...
Abstract. We address optimal group manipulation in multidimensional, multi-facility location problems. We focus on two families of mechanisms, generalized median and quantile mecha...
It is well known that standard game-theoretic approaches to voting mechanisms lead to a multitude of Nash Equilibria (NE), many of which are counter-intuitive. We focus on truth-bi...

We show that a number of election-related problems with prices (such as, for example, bribery) are fixed-parameter tractable (in FPT) when parameterized by the number of candidate...

To tackle the potentially hard task of defining the reward function in a Markov Decision Process (MDPs), a new approach, called Interactive Value Iteration (IVI) has recently been...

Abstract. We propose a framework for automated multi-attribute decision making, employing the probabilistic non-monotonic description logics proposed by Lukasiewicz in 2008. Using ...
Many mathematical frameworks aim at modeling human preferences, employing a number of methods including utility functions, qualitative preference statements, constraint optimizatio...

In this paper, we address the problem of comparing the performances of two popular aggregation operators, the weighted sum and the Choquet integral, for selecting the best alternat...
Moving beyond the dualistic view in AI where agent and environment are separated incurs new challenges for decision making, as calculation of expected utility is no longer straigh...
