A game is a situation which conceives and concludes through reality involving a set of players, may be two or more. Conclusions of such situations are not always very easy, e.g., if one wins other loses. Sometimes, when considering the totality, the outcome of game is not linguistically zero, and we utter the term non-zero-sum game. Prisoners' dilemma game is one of most cited examples in non-zero-sum game literature. In this paper, human trafficking, one of the most rising problems of today's society is viewed through Prisoners' dilemma game using hesitant interval-valued intuitionistic fuzzy-linguistic term set, where linguistic terms in interval are expressed by linguistic semantics first, and then corresponding indices are used. Finally, Nash equilibrium is derived from the given definition, and the achieved result establishes a close contact with reality using the Technique for Order of Preference by Similarity to Ideal Solution (TOPSIS) and Dominance property of matrix game theory.

Cooperative games under interval uncertainty: on the convexity of the interval undominated cores
Branzei, R.; ALPARSLAN GÖK, Sırma Zeynep; Branzei, O. (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2011-12-01)
Uncertainty is a daily presence in the real world. It affects our decision making and may have influence on cooperation. Often uncertainty is so severe that we can only predict some upper and lower bounds for the outcome of our actions, i.e., payoffs lie in some intervals. A suitable game theoretic model to support decision making in collaborative situations with interval data is that of cooperative interval games. Solution concepts that associate with each cooperative interval game sets of interval allocat...
Mutual relevance of investor sentiment and finance by modeling coupled stochastic systems with MARS
Kalayci, Betul; Ozmen, Ayse; Weber, Gerhard Wilhelm (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2020-08-01)
Stochastic differential equations (SDEs) rapidly become one of the most well-known formats in which to express such diverse mathematical models under uncertainty such as financial models, neural systems, behavioral and neural responses, human reactions and behaviors. They belong to the main methods to describe randomness of a dynamical model today. In a financial system, different kinds of SDEs have been elaborated to model various financial assets. On the other hand, economists have conducted research on s...
Neural network calibrated stochastic processes: forecasting financial assets
Giebel, Stefan; Rainer, Martin (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2013-03-01)
If a given dynamical process contains an inherently unpredictable component, it may be modeled as a stochastic process. Typical examples from financial markets are the dynamics of prices (e.g. prices of stocks or commodities) or fundamental rates (exchange rates etc.). The unknown future value of the corresponding stochastic process is usually estimated as the expected value under a suitable measure, which may be determined from distribution of past (historical) values. The predictive power of this estimati...
A decomposition approach for undiscounted two-person zero-sum stochastic games
Avşar, Zeynep Müge (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 1999-06-01)
Two-person zero-sum stochastic games are considered under the long-run average expected payoff criterion. State and action spaces are assumed finite. By making use of the concept of maximal communicating classes, the following decomposition algorithm is introduced for solving two-person zero-sum stochastic games: First, the state space is decomposed into maximal communicating classes. Then, these classes are organized in an hierarchical order where each level may contain more than one maximal communicating ...
Optimal lot-sizing/vehicle-dispatching policies under stochastic lead times and stepwise fixed costs
Alp, O; Erkip, NK; Gullu, R (Institute for Operations Research and the Management Sciences (INFORMS), 2003-01-01)
We characterize optimal policies of a dynamic lot-sizing/vehicle-dispatching problem under dynamic deterministic demands and stochastic lead times. An essential feature of the problem is the structure of the ordering cost, where a fixed cost is incurred every time a batch is initiated (or a vehicle is hired) regardless of the portion of the batch (or vehicle) utilized. Moreover, for every unit of demand not satisfied on time, holding and backorder costs are incurred. Under mild assumptions we show that the ...
