Different types of equilibria are considered in order to incorporate players different rationality types for finite non cooperative generalized games with perfect information. Proposed equilibria are characterized by use of several generative relations with respect to players rationality. An evolutionary technique for detecting approximations for equilibria is used. Numerical experiments show the potential of the method.

Communities are characterized by dense intra-connections and comparatively sparse inter-cluster connections. The community detection problem is empirically formulated from a game theoretic point of view and solved using a Crowding based Differential Evolution algorithm adapted for detecting Nash equilibria of noncooperative games. Numerical results ...

The originality of the approach consists in the fact that the fitness assignment is realized by using a guiding hyperplane and a new non Pareto optimality concept. THEA has been tested on consecrated benchmarks.

The minimax problem can be transformed in a two players zero-sum game considering the fact that the Nash equilibria of this game would represent the solution of the original problem. Using the Nash ascendancy relation the equilibria of the game can be directly computed using a differential evolution algorithm. Results obtained by using this approach are compared with best known results from literature on six minimax benchmark problems.
