Abstract: Cooperation between autonomous and rational agents is still a challenge. The problem even gets harder if the agents follow different policies or if they are designed by different companies that have contradicting goals. In such systems agents cannot rely on the cooperation willingness of the other agents. Mostly, the reason for receiving cooperation is not observable as it is a result of the private decision process of the other agent. We deal with a multiagent system where the agents decide with whom to cooperate on the basis of multiple criteria. The system models these criteria with the help of rated propositions. Interaction in our system can only occur between agents that are linked together in a network structure. The agents adapt their values to the best performing neighbor and rewire their connections if they have uncooperative neighbors. We will present an imitation-based learning mechanism and we will theoretically analyze the mechanism. This paper also presents a worst cas e scenario in which the mechanism will fail. (More)
