This thesis studies the dynamics of decision-making in a repeated auction game used as a basis for designing distributed resource management and task assignment mechanisms. We study the problem of coordinating a group of independent agents in a dynamic environment…

This thesis studies and develops quality-of-service (QoS)-aware power allocation and frequency provisioning schemes for multicarrier wireless systems in a frequency-selective fading environment. We first develop an optimal subcarrier power allocation algorithm to maximize the energy efficiency (EE) of a single-user…

Having a complete knowledge about average traffic rates on different links in a network is highly desirable for network operators, particularly when performing tasks such as capacity planning and traffic engineering, or when making decisions on network redesigning.In this thesis,…

Specularity is a very common phenomenon in the real world and confounds many computer vision tasks such as stereo. The first purpose of this thesis is to design a real-time algorithm of specularity detection. After that, with the knowledge of…

This thesis focuses on Mean Field Game (MFG) theory with applications to consensus, flocking, leader-follower and major-minor agent systems. The MFG methodology addresses a class of dynamic games with a large number of minor agents in which each agent interacts…
