Information, interaction and manipulation in voting
Maastricht :
Maastricht University, 2023.
Collective decision-making is a part of everyday life in modern society. People invented a variety of voting procedures for aggregating individual preferences into a collective choice. However, the problem is that people can misrepresent their preferences in order to achieve a more preferable voting result. This phenomenon is called manipulation and is considered negative since due to manipulation the voting result becomes biased. The following thesis considers several models of manipulation in voting which take into account possible incompleteness of information available to voters and voters’ interaction. It is demonstrated that public information and voters’ view of the behavior of others are the crucial aspects that affect individual manipulation incentives. The thesis provides an extensive study of conditions that allow for manipulation and those restricting it.

One of the effective means of protecting digital images is invisible watermarking. Different scenarios have different requirements for watermark resistance to post-processing. Robust watermarking schemes are resistant to a wide range of modifications. Fragile watermarking schemes are designed for integrity control and are destroyed by even minor modifications of images. Semi-fragile watermarking schemes combine features ...

Три с половиной года остаётся до 2030-го – окончания срока реализации Целей устойчивого развития (ЦУР) – главной международной инициативы, устанавливающей долгосрочные ориентиры для будущего человечества. Уже очевидно, что она провалилась: преодоление бедности, решение экологических проблем и построение инклюзивного и справедливого общества остались красивой мечтой. Кто-то может воспринимать ЦУР как памятник человеческой наивности. Но надо понимать, что эта ...

The article presents a methodology for the integrated assessment of cyberattacks on industrial control systems (ICS) using a combination of the Ampire cyber range and a digital twin. The approach is based on calculating five criteria—severity, attacker capabilities, vulnerability, complexity, and defense effectiveness—that form an integrated threat index. Testing across three scenarios confirmed the index's ...

A hybrid algorithm has been developed to solve the VLSI component placement problem by combining procedures based on bee colony behavior and a chromosome swarm. The optimization criterion is based on estimates of the number of nets crossing specific lines within the routing area. A modified chromosome swarm paradigm is described; unlike the canonical method, ...

We consider the problem of coalitional manipulation in collective decision
making and a probabilistic approach for solving it. We assume that voters have some
