Generalising Axelrod’s Metanorms Game Through the Use of Explicit Domain-Specific Norms
Achieving social order in societies of self-interested autonomous agents is a difficult problem due to lack of trust in the actions of others and the... -
Solving Social Dilemmas by Reasoning About Expectations
It has been argued that one role of social constructs, such as institutions, trust and norms, is to coordinate the expectations of autonomous... -
Domain-Conditioned Normalization for Test-Time Domain Generalization
Domain generalization aims to train a robust model on multiple source domains that generalizes well to unseen target domains. While considerable... -
Stable Configurations with (Meta)Punishing Agents
We consider an adaptation of Axelrod’s metanorm model, where a population of agents choose between cooperating and defecting in bilateral... -
Establishing norms with metanorms over interaction topologies
Norms are a valuable means of establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which there is no central authority. Axelrod’s...

Stable Configurations with (Meta)Punishing Agents
We consider an adaptation of Axelrod’s metanorm model, where a population of agents choose between cooperating and defecting in bilateral... -
Establishing norms with metanorms in distributed computational systems
Norms provide a valuable mechanism for establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which there is no central authority....

Norm Establishment in a Single Dimension Axelrod Model
In Axelrod norm models (Axelrod, 1986), the existence of a norm is described in terms of two variables, namely Boldness and Vengefulness. This... -
Overcoming Omniscience for Norm Emergence in Axelrod’s Metanorm Model
Norms are a valuable mechanism for establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which no central authority exists. In this... -
Norm Emergence through Dynamic Policy Adaptation in Scale Free Networks
As has been stated elsewhere, norms are a valuable means of establishing coherent cooperative behaviour in decentralised systems in which there is no... -
Establishing Norms for Network Topologies
In order to establish a norm in a society of agents, metanorms have previously been proposed as a means of ensuring not that norms are complied with,... -
Coordination, Conventions and the Self-organisation of Sustainable Institutions
Applications where autonomous and heterogeneous agents form opportunistic alliances, which require them to share collective resources to achieve... -
The Effects of Evolved Sociability in a Commons Dilemma
This paper explores the evolution of strategies in an n-player dilemma game. These n-player dilemmas provide a formal representation of many real... -
Peer Pressure as a Driver of Adaptation in Agent Societies
We consider a resource access control scenario in an open multi-agent system. We specify a mutable set of rules to determine how resource allocation... -
Norms and plans as unification criteria for social collectives
Based on the paradigm of Constructive Descriptions and Situations , we introduce NIC , an ontology of social collectives that includes social agents,...

Investigation of Mutual Choice Metanorm in Group Dynamics for Solving Social Dilemmas
In this research, we propose group dynamics that promotes cooperative behavior in the so-called Social Dilemmas and enhances the performance of... -
Fuzzy Games and Equilibria: The Perspective of the General Theory of Games on Nash and Normative Equilibria
Extending the general theory of games (GGT), this paper fuzzifies judgment, decision making, and game equilibria. It models the ways in which players... -
Agent-Based Simulation in the Study of Social Dilemmas
This review discusses agent-based social simulation (ABSS) in relation tothe study of social dilemmas such as the Prisoner'sDilemma and Tragedy of the...

Analysis of Norms Game with Mutual Choice
In this paper, our purpose is to represent the establishment of the norm as the indirect sanction of mutual choice that individuals have the rights... -
Norms in artificial decision making
A method for forcing norms onto individual agents in a multi-agent system is presented. The agents under study are supersoft agents: autonomous...
