In this paper, we describe the Factored Value MCTS Hybrid Cost-Max-Plus algorithm, a collection of decision-making algorithms (centralized, decentralized, and hybrid) for a multi-agent system in a collaborative setting that considers action costs. Our proposed algorithm is made up of two steps....

We study the interaction between algorithmic advice and human decisions using high-resolution hotel-room pricing data. We document that price setting frictions, arising from adjustment costs of human decision makers, induce a conflict of interest with the algorithmic advisor. A model of advice...
