Abstract: A system for implementing a negotiation includes a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions thereon. The system further includes a processor connected to the non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for preventing a party from repeating an offer during the negotiation unless a predetermined condition is satisfied. The processor is further configured to execute the instructions for requiring the party to continue to repeat the offer until an end of the negotiation in response to satisfaction of the predetermined condition.

Abstract: A main party (10) operates multiple main negotiators 32 through which the main party (10) negotiates with multiple partner parties (20). A policy generation apparatus (100) generates an offer sequence for each main negotiator (32). The main negotiator (32) performs the negotiations in accordance with the offer sequence. The policy generation apparatus (100) generates the offer policy so that a global utility becomes as large as possible to achieve a good result in a whole of the concurrent negotiations. The global utility represents criteria to evaluate the quality of a whole of the concurrent negotiations.

Abstract: A system for selecting and using a neural architecture includes a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions thereon; and a processor connected to the non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for receiving negotiation traces, wherein the negotiation traces include offers from previous negotiations with a target negotiating party. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for training the neural architecture using only the received negotiation traces. The processor is configured to execute the instructions for optimizing an offer to the target negotiating party during a negotiation using the trained neural architecture.

Abstract: A method of adaptive autonomous negotiation includes receiving a first offer, using a receiver. The method further includes automatically identifying a first negotiator of a plurality of negotiators, using a processor, based on the received first offer, wherein the plurality of negotiators is stored in a memory. The method further includes automatically selecting a first strategy from a plurality of strategies based on the identified first negotiator, wherein the plurality of strategies is stored in the memory. The method further includes automatically selecting an action for responding to the first offer based on the selected first strategy, wherein automatically selected the action includes performing an inverse mapping on the selected first strategy. The method further includes automatically transmitting the selected action, using a transmitter.

Abstract: Automated negotiation agent adaptation is performed by detecting change in a utility function involved in automated negotiation between a supporting agent and an opposing agent while the supporting agent operates according to a first negotiation strategy model, generating a plurality of training samples from automated negotiation between the supporting agent and the opposing agent while the supporting agent operates according to a baseline negotiation strategy model, and training an initialized negotiation strategy model using the plurality of training samples to produce a second negotiation strategy model.

Abstract: A system includes a non-transitory computer readable medium configured to store instructions. The system further includes a processor connected to the non-transitory computer readable medium. The processor is configured to receive information for a user utility function (Ufun) having uncertainty. The processor is configured to generate an offer in a negotiation based on the user Ufun. The processor is configured to determine whether additional information should be requested from a user. The processor is configured to identify a query to obtain the additional information in response to a determination that additional information should be requested. The processor is configured to determine a value of information (VOI) value for the identified query. The processor is configured to send the identified query to the user in response to the VOI value being greater than the interruption threshold.
