Differentially private multi-agent constraint optimization

Boi Faltings, Sujit Prakash Gujar, Aleksei Triastcyn, Sankarshan Damle

Distributed constraint optimization (DCOP) is a framework in which multiple agents with private constraints (or preferences) cooperate to achieve a common goal optimally. DCOPs are applicable in several multi-agent coordination/allocation problems, such as ...
