Uncertainty in iterated cooperation games (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P. (2008). Uncertainty in iterated cooperation games. In 2008 IEEE Congress on Evolutionary Computation (IEEE World Congress on Computational Intelligence) (593-599). https://doi.org/10.1109/CEC.2008.4630856

The emergence and evolution of cooperation among selfish individuals is a key question of theoretical biology. Uncertainty of outcomes of interactions between individuals is an important determinant of cooperative behavior. Here we describe a model t...
