Information Structure Design in Team Decision Problems
July 2017
We consider a problem of information structure design in team decision problems and team games. We propose simple, scalable greedy algorithms for adding a set of extra information links to optimize team performance and resilience to non-cooperative and adversarial agents. We show via a simple counterexample that the set function mapping additional information links to team performance is in general not supermodular. Although this implies that the greedy algorithm is not accompanied by worst-case performance guarantees, we illustrate through numerical experiments that it can produce effective and often optimal or near optimal information structure modifications.
