ABSTRACT
Engaging in negotiations is a daily activity. Some negotiations require the involvement of a mediator in order to be concluded in a satisfying manner. In such cases, the objective is to help the negotiators reach a mutually beneficial agreement [6, 4]. Our research focuses on mediation tools for dealing with bilateral negotiations under time constraints.

AutoMed: an automated mediator for multi-issue bilateral negotiations
In this paper, we present AutoMed, an automated mediator for multi-issue bilateral negotiation under time constraints. AutoMed elicits the negotiators preferences and analyzes them. It monitors the negotiations and proposes possible solutions for ...
Genetic-aided multi-issue bilateral bargaining for complex utility functions
AAMAS '10: Proceedings of the 9th International Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems: volume 1 - Volume 1In this paper, a non-mediated multi-issue bilateral bargaining model for complex utility functions is presented. Before the negotiation process, a genetic algorithm (GA) is used to sample one's own utility function. During the negotiation process, ...
Learning about the opponent in automated bilateral negotiation: a comprehensive survey of opponent modeling techniques
A negotiation between agents is typically an incomplete information game, where the agents initially do not know their opponent's preferences or strategy. This poses a challenge, as efficient and effective negotiation requires the bidding agent to take ...
