A data analysis of equilibrium selection

摘要

Commonly accepted criterion of equilibrium selection has not been established. This situation exists because we do not have sufficient information about what sort of equilibrium is selected in real games. This study experiments a set of games and estimates the selected equilibrium of each game by using an estimation model of equilibrium selection. Through the analysis, a criterion that rules these games in the experiments is identified, and the usefulness of this approach is demonstrated.
