Each value in an issue is imagined as approximating one of the three basic functions (downhill, uphill, triangular). Using[[BR]] the Bayesian formula, each hypothesis for a value is updated. Finally the hypothesis are combined based on their likelihood[[BR]] to determine the final form of the utility function for each value in the issue; combining these results in the utility function for[[BR]] an issue. Finally, the bidding strategy uses isocurves and the opponent model to increase acceptance.|| ||'''Relevance'''||8|| ||'''Bibtex'''||X|| ||'''Cites seen'''||Yes|| [[BR]] ||'''Title'''||Agents that Acquire Negotiation Strategies Using a Game Theoretic Learning Theory|| ||'''Author(s)'''||N.

Boulware is a hard bargaining tactic, whereas [[BR]]conceder is soft. Besides evaluating the outcome one should also analyze the dance.

The negotiation strategy discussed is for billeteral multi-issue[[BR]] negotiation. A decreasing util curve is considered. A bid is calculated to fit the current [[BR]]util. Each issue has a seperate parameter such that more or less concession can be made on [[BR]]certain issues. General tolerance determines the general speed of concession. For each issue[[BR]] for the opponent bid and new calculated bid it is considered how much concession is made [[BR]]towards the opponent bid based on the configuration tolerance for each issue. This full [[BR]]formula depends on the weights of the opponent, which have to be estimated. The weights for each [[BR]]attribute can be estimated by comparing the distance between attributes for an issue in [[BR]]sequential bids and using this distance to mark the importance of an attribute. This last [[BR]]step is domain dependent. Concluding, the technique works, but requires tuning for the domain[[BR]] and assumes that the other agent plays a more or less similiar concession based technique. || ||'''Relevance'''||4, domain dependent opponent modelling approach for learning ordering of attributes|| ||'''Bibtex'''||[http://scholar.google.nl/scholar.bib?q=info:fSLXt9dFf4kJ:scholar.google.com/&output=citation&hl=nl&as_sdt=0,5&ct=citation&cd=0 Link]|| ||'''Cites seen'''||Yes|| ||'''Processed'''||Yes|| [[BR]] ||'''Title'''||Bayesian Learning in Bilateral Multi-issue Negotiation and its Application in MAS-based Electronic Commerce|| ||'''Author(s)'''||J.

Building intelligent negotiation agents is still[[br]] emerging. In contrast to most negotiation models, sequential decision model allows for learning. Learning can help understand[[br]] human behaviour, but can also result in better results for the learning party. Bayesian learning of reservation[[br]] values can be used to determine the zone of agreement for an issue based on the domain knowledge and bidding interactions.[[br]] Concluding for one-issue, learning positively influences bargaining quality, number of exchanged proposals,[[br]] and leads to a better compromise if both learn.

Kernel Density Estimation (KDE) is used to estimate the weight attached to different issues [[br]]by different agents. It is assumed that if the value of an issue increases, that this is positive for one agent, and negative [[br]]for the other. No assumptions about relation between time, negotiation history and issue-weight are required, in contrast [[br]]to Bayesian learning. The difference between concessive (counter)offers is used to estimate the weights of the issues [[br]] (assumption: stronger concessions are made later on in the negotiation). Faratin's hill climbing algorithm augmented with KDE is [[br]]used to propose the next bid. KDE proved succesful on the used negotiation model. Future works entails testing the approach [[br]]against different opponent strategies and extending the approach to other negotiation models (see assumption in summary). || ||'''Relevance'''||9.

The mirror strategy mirrors the behaviours of the opponent, based on a [[BR]]classification of the opponent move.

Overall the strategy is shown to be effective by [[BR]]comparing the result of first testing the strategy against a random agent, and then the other agents. Also, the[[BR]] distance to a Kalai-Smorodinsky solution and the distance to the Nash Point is used as a metric. For [[BR]]future work the exploitability of MS should be researched.|| ||'''Relevance'''||8, interesting application of opponent modelling || ||'''Bibtex'''||[http://scholar.google.nl/scholar.bib?q=info:BtssqMir4RcJ:scholar.google.com/&output=citation&hl=nl&as_sdt=0,5&ct=citation&cd=2 Link]|| ||'''Cites seen'''||Yes|| ||'''Processed'''||Yes|| [[BR]] ||'''Title'''||The First Automated Negotiating Agents Competition (ANAC 2010)|| ||'''Author(s)'''||T.

[[br]]Opponent models can also be used to identify the type of strategy of the opponent. Interesting agents for further analysis [[br]]are: IAM(crazy)Haggler, FSEGA (profile learning), and Agent Smith. Issues can be predicatable, which means that they [[br]]have a logical order, or unpredicatable, such as colors. This paper also includes acceptance conditions.|| ||'''Relevance'''||5, too global, however interesting citations|| ||'''Bibtex'''||[http://scholar.google.nl/scholar.bib?q=info:vKSG_Lm38D0J:scholar.google.com/&output=citation&hl=nl&as_sdt=0,5&ct=citation&cd=3 Link]|| ||'''Cites seen'''||Yes|| [[BR]] ||'''Title'''||Towards a Quality Assessment Method for Learning Preference Profiles in Negotiation|| ||'''Author(s)'''||K.V.

They also measures time by averaging [[BR]] over all bids. This is used to determine when to accept in panic.|| ||'''Relevance'''||4, only finding the amount of rounds is interesting, but obvious|| ||'''Bibtex'''||X|| ||'''Cites seen'''||Yes|| ||'''Processed'''||Yes|| [[BR]]
