A track capacity maximizing strategy under conditions of punctuality and financial incentives for private railway operators creates goal conflicts at the operational level.
Hence, at Ii1 i's payoff maximizing strategy is a branch of the tree starting from Ii1 which leads to a subgame whose backwards induction solution is best for i, and since i is rational, i chooses such a branch at Ii1.
Below, we investigate the relationship between the matching and maximizing strategies, taking all possible choice behaviors into account.
Differences between the matching and maximizing strategies can arise when the decision system assigns incorrect information sources to the state variables.
To examine the performance of the matching and maximizing strategies, we introduced a decision-making task in which reward is given (rt = 1) or not given (rt = 0) to the subject according to the probability determined by the subject's current (at) and most recent one or two choices (at−1 and at−2).
However, it is becoming increasingly evident that the fitness maximizing strategies of males and females are often incompatible, and traits that increase fitness in one sex, decrease fitness in the other sex [ 40, 62].
Although referrals are not obligatory, they enable contract physicians to alleviate treatment maximizing strategies intended to compensate for decreasing returns per patient and treatment, resulting from the above mentioned remuneration scheme.
A game-theoretic analysis shows that the rate-maximizing strategy under the worst-case interference (WCI) in the DSM setting corresponds to a Nash equilibrium in pure strategies of a certain strictly competitive game.
We evaluate the effects of competitors adopting their revenue maximizing strategy both independently of each other and simultaneously while assuming the size of the market is viewed as a zero sum game.
In recent years, this output-maximizing strategy had, in turn, generated historic wealth for the giant oil companies.
