A Multi-Objective Hybrid Game Pricing Strategy for Integrated Energy Operator-Load Aggregator Alliances Considering Integrated Demand Response by Yunlong Wang, Shan He

“…Secondly, to achieve cooperation between load aggregators, we use Nash bargaining theory to decompose the cooperative game model into two subproblems: maximizing alliance benefits and allocating cooperation benefits. Finally, we use the Alternative Direction Method of Multipliers (ADMM) algorithm combined with dichotomy and compromise programming theory to solve the model, to maximize the interests of all parties in the continuous interaction process. …”

Assessing the potential of a Bayesian ranking as an alternative to consensus meetings for decision making in research funding: A case study of Marie Skłodowska-Curie actions. by Rachel Heyard, David G Pina, Ivan Buljan, Ana Marušić

“…The best agreement between the final funding ranking can be observed in the case of funding schemes with very low success rates. While we set out to understand if algorithmic approaches, with the aim of summarising individual evaluation scores, could replace consensus meetings, we concluded that currently individual scores assigned prior to the consensus meetings are not useful to predict the final funding outcomes of the proposals. …”
