Partial memories, inductively derived views, and their interactions with behavior

Kaneko, Mamoru

Partial memories, inductively derived views, and their interactions with behavior created by Mamoru Kaneko and J. Jude Kline - Economic theory Volume 53, number 1 .

We explore the inductively derived views obtained by players with partial temporal (short-term) memories. A player derives his personal view of the objective game situation from his accumulated (long-term) memories, and then uses it for decision making. A salient feature that distinguishes this paper from others on inductive game theory is partiality of a memory function of a player. This creates a multiplicity of possibly derived views. Although this is a difficulty for a player in various senses, it is an essential problem of induction. Faced with multiple possible views, a player may try to resolve this using further experiences. The two-way interaction between behavior and personal views is another distinguishing feature of the present paper.
