Sponsored search is a mechanism that shows the appropriate ads according to search queries. The orders and payments of ads are determined by the auction. Recently, the allocations are determined by the click through rate(CTR) and the externalities which give effects to CTR and haven't been considered in existing works. However, the mechanism with externalities has high computational cost. The algorithm...
Most real-world negotiation involves multiple interdependent issues, which makes an agent's utility functions complex. Traditional negotiation mechanisms, which were designed for linear utilities, do not fare well in nonlinear contexts. One of the main challenges in developing effective nonlinear negotiation protocols is scalability, it can be extremely difficult to find high-quality solutions when...
Most real-world negotiation involves multiple interdependent issues, which makes an agent's utility functions nonlinear. Traditional negotiation mechanisms, which were designed for linear utilities, do not fare well in nonlinear contexts. One of the main challenges in developing effective nonlinear negotiation protocols is scalability; they can produce excessively high failure rates, when there are...
The expansion of the Internet has changed the way business models are conceived. In addition, several e-commerce models have been established for a wide range of applications. Thanks to the proliferation of advanced and efficient technologies, individuals are using more interactive and rich Internet applications. At the same time, Multi-agent systems have shown their efficiency to solve complex problems...
Multiple issue negotiation represents an important field of study. Our work focuses on negotiations with multiple interdependent issues in which agent utility functions are highly nonlinear. This paper presents the following three novel points on multiple interdependent issues negotiations. First, we define a utility function based on ``cone-constraints". This utility function is more realistic...
