Nous nous intéressons dans cet article à la conception d’un protocole de formation de coalitions distribué et générique. Pour ce faire, nous étudions une adaptation au cadre de la formation de coalitions d’un protocole de négociation multilatérale initialement proposé par Ulle Endriss. Ce protocole utilise un mécanisme de concession monotone et nous proposons, d’une part, une adaptation directe au problème de formation de coalitions et, d’autre part, deux nouvelles stratégies de concession qui prennent explicitement en compte la notion de coalition. Nous étudions par la suite comment différents critères influencent les performances du protocole, y compris en termes de types de concession décrivant des contraintes sur les propositions que les agents peuvent formuler. Nous montrons expérimentalement que nos deux stratégies tenant compte explicitement des coalitions sont efficaces lorsqu’elles sont associées aux trois types de concession qui minimisent les pertes, à savoir les types fort, égalitaire et Pareto.
In this article, we are interested to design a distributed and generic coalition formation protocol. To this end, we study an adaptation of a multilateral negotiation protocol originally proposed by Ulle Endriss. This protocol uses a monotonic concession mechanism and we propose, on the one hand, a direct adaptation to the coalition formation problem and, on the other hand, two new concession strategies that explicitly take into account the notion of coalition. We then study how different criteria influence the performance of the protocol, including concession types describing constraints on the proposals agents can make. We show experimentally that our two strategies that explicitly take coalitions into account are efficient when they are associated with the three loss-minimizing concession types, namely the strong, egalitarian and Pareto types.
