Normative reasoning with an adaptive self-interested agent model based on Markov decision processes |

---|---|---|
Rational self-interested agents, which act so as to achieve the best expected outcome, should violate the norms if the expected rewards obtained with the defections from the norms surpass the expected rewards obtained by being norm-compliant. It means they should estimate the earnings brought about by the violations and the losses caused by their respective reactions. In this paper, we present a rational self-interested agent model that takes into account the possibility of breaking norms. To develop such model, we employ Markov Decision Processes (MDPs). Our approach consists of representing the reactions for norm violations within the MDPs in such a way that the agent is able to reason about how those violations affect her expected utilities and future options. Finally, we perform an experiment in order to establish comparisons between the model presented in this work and its norm-compliant version. |
