Uncertainty and communication complexity in iterated cooperation games (2008)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Andras, P. (2008). Uncertainty and communication complexity in iterated cooperation games. In Artificial Life XI 2008 (9-16)

Iterated cooperation games (e.g. Prisoner’s Dilemma) are used to analyze the emergence and evolution of cooperation among selfish individuals. Uncertainty of outcomes of games is an important factor that influences the level of cooperation. Communica... Read More about Uncertainty and communication complexity in iterated cooperation games.
