    The H&R multi-choice Shapley value defined by Hsiao and Raghavan for multi-choice cooperative game is redundant free. If the H&R value is used as the solution of a game, there won't be any objection to a player's taking redundant actions. Therefore, the spirit of the law on equal job opportunities is automatically fulfilled.Shapley value; multi-choice cooperative game; redundant free

    The H&R Shapley value defined by Hsiao and Raghavan for multi-choice cooperative game is redundant free. If the H&R Shapley value is used as the solution of a game, there won't be any objection to a player's taking redundant actions. Therefore, the spirit of the law on equal job opportunities is automatically fulfilled. Also, if the H&R Shapley value is used as the solution of a game, it makes no difference to the players whether they have the same number of options or not. Moreover, the D&P Shapley value, the P&Z Shapley value and the WAC value are linear combinations of the H&R Shapley value, hence, they have all the same dummy free properties and the independent property as does the H&R Shapley value. Finally the N&P Shapley value is not redundant free.Shapley value, multi-choice cooperative game, redundant free, independent of non-essential players.

    Nowadays social media can collect consumers' online behavior. The enterprises make the customized advertisement to achieve targeting marketing and close consumers' needs. With the right of privacy, the consumers pay attention to this kind of advertisement. In this study, we made the online questionnaire. Asking the privacy concern, and analyzing the advertising attitude and behavior in a different advertising situation. The result we found that customized advertising made consumers increase positive attitude, but made negative attitude on advertising behavior like click, share, etc. In addition, both male and female have different responses to customized advertisements and intimate products advertisements. The result can serve a reference for manufacturers to make advertising strategies in the future

    We define a partially consistent property for a solution of cooperative TU games, then use the consistent property to characterize the well-known Shapley value

    A Characterization of the Shapley Value for Cooperative Games

    Get PDF
    Motivated by a case of discrimination against some particular players happened in the real world, we define the partially consistent property of the solutions for cooperative games and use the property to characterize the Shapley value. This is different from the characterization of the Shapley value by applying the consistency property proposed by Hart and Mas-Colell

    Dual regulation by ethanol of the inhibitory effects of ketamine on spinal NMDA-induced pressor responses in rats

    <p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Acute exposure of ethanol (alcohol) inhibits NMDA receptor function. Our previous study showed that acute ethanol inhibited the pressor responses induced by NMDA applied intrathecally; however, prolonged ethanol exposure may increase the levels of phosphorylated NMDA receptor subunits leading to changes in ethanol inhibitory potency on NMDA-induced responses. The present study was carried out to examine whether acute ethanol exposure influences the effects of ketamine, a noncompetitive NMDA receptor antagonist, on spinal NMDA-induced pressor responses.</p> <p>Methods</p> <p>The blood pressure responses induced by intrathecal injection of NMDA were recorded in urethane-anesthetized rats weighing 250-275 g. The levels of several phosphorylated residues on NMDA receptor GluN1 subunits were determined by western blot analysis.</p> <p>Results</p> <p>Intravenous injection of ethanol or ketamine inhibited spinal NMDA-induced pressor responses in a dose-dependent and reversible manner. Ketamine inhibition of NMDA-induced responses was synergistically potentiated by ethanol when ethanol was applied just before ketamine. However, ketamine inhibition was significantly reduced when applied at 10 min after ethanol administration. Western blot analysis showed that intravenous ethanol increased the levels of phosphoserine 897 on GluN1 subunits (pGluN1-serine 897), selectively phosphorylated by protein kinase A (PKA), in the lateral horn regions of spinal cord at 10 min after administration. Intrathecal administration of cAMPS-Sp, a PKA activator, at doses elevating the levels of pGluN1-serine 897, significantly blocked ketamine inhibition of spinal NMDA-induced responses.</p> <p>Conclusions</p> <p>The results suggest that ethanol may differentially regulate ketamine inhibition of spinal NMDA receptor function depending on ethanol exposure time and the resulting changes in the levels of pGluN1-serine 897.</p
