Dynamic-Occlusion-Aware Risk Identification for Autonomous Vehicles Using Hypergames
(University of Waterloo, 2021-12-17)A particular challenge for both autonomous vehicles (AV) and human drivers is dealing with risk associated with dynamic occlusion, i.e., occlusion caused by other vehicles in traffic. In order to overcome this challenge, ... -
Emergence and Implications of Conservation Opinion Propagation in Dynamic Coupled Socio-Ecological Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2021-04-22)Human behaviour is rarely a static phenomenon. In life, individuals are presented with choices that define the trajectories they will experience days, weeks or months later. As an example consider farmer decision-making ... -
Empirical Game Theoretic Models for Autonomous Driving: Methods and Applications
(University of Waterloo, 2022-09-16)In recent years, there has been enormous public interest in autonomous vehicles (AV), with more than 80 billion dollars invested in self-driving car technology. However, for the foreseeable future, self-driving cars will ... -
The Impact of Teams in Multiagent Systems
(University of Waterloo, 2023-07-31)Across many domains, the ability to work in teams can magnify a group's abilities beyond the capabilities of any individual. While the science of teamwork is typically studied in organizational psychology (OP) and areas ... -
Improving Convergence Rates in Multiagent Learning Through Experts and Adaptive Consultation
(University of Waterloo, 2007-05-07)Multiagent learning (MAL) is the study of agents learning while in the presence of other agents who are also learning. As a field, MAL is built upon work done in both artificial intelligence and game theory. Game theory ... -
Incentivizing evaluation with peer prediction and limited access to ground truth
(Elsevier, 2019-10)In many settings, an effective way of evaluating objects of interest is to collect evaluations from dispersed individuals and to aggregate these evaluations together. Some examples are categorizing online content and ... -
Quantum Strategies and Local Operations
(University of Waterloo, 2010-01-06)This thesis is divided into two parts. In Part I we introduce a new formalism for quantum strategies, which specify the actions of one party in any multi-party interaction involving the exchange of multiple quantum messages ... -
Strategic Interactions in Antiviral Drug Use During an Influenza Pandemic
(Public Library of Science, 2017-01-12)Background: The evolution of antiviral drug resistance during influenza pandemics has created widespread concern. Use of antiviral drugs is a main contributor to the evolution of drug-resistant strains. Moreover, there are ... -
“Wait and see” vaccinating behavior during a pandemic: a game theoretic analysis
(Elsevier, 2011-07-26)During the 2009 H1N1 pandemic, many individuals adopted a “wait and see” approach to vaccinating until further information was available on the course of the pandemic and emerging vaccine risks. This behaviour implies two ...
