Abstract:

Coalition formation is a key topic in multi-agents system, however, finding the optimal coalition structure is NP-complete. Sandholm and Larson et al. showed that it is necessary and sufficient to search the lowest two levels of the coalition structure graph in order to establish a worst-case bound k. When practical applications can present required real bound in the worst case, how to do a further minimal search to find a coalition structure which value can be guaranteed to be apart from optimal coalition structure value mutually in a given bound. It is a problem that deserves to study and hasn't been solved for a long time. This paper analyzes the different method of grouping influence on the number of cardinality structures, and presents a new grouping method and a new algorithm of coalition structure generation for the given bound in the worse case, decreases greatly the demanded searching the number of cardinality structure or coalition structure.
