Reciprocity, Evolution, and Decision Games in Network and Data Science
Learn how to analyse and manage evolutionary and sequential user behaviours in modern networks, and how to optimize network performance by using indirect reciprocity, evolutionary games, and sequential decision making. Understand the latest theory without the need to go through the details of traditional game theory. With practical management tools to regulate user behaviour, and simulations and experiments with real data sets, this is an ideal tool for graduate students and researchers working in networking, communications, and signal processing.
- The first book on comprehensive treatment of evolutionary games, indirect reciprocity, and sequential decision making
- Describes the applications of game-theoretic models in real world systems, including wireless and social networks
- Develops and expands new game-theoretic models such as the Chinese restaurant game.
