We consider a stochastic matching model with a general compatibility graph, as introduced in \cite{MaiMoy16}. We show that the natural necessary condition of stability of the system is also sufficient for the natural matching policy 'First…
We propose an explicit construction of the stationary state of Extended Bipartite Matching (EBM) models, as defined in (Busic et. al., 2013). We use a Loynes-type backwards scheme similar in flavor to that in (Moyal et al., 2017), allowing…
We extend the general stochastic matching model on graphs introduced in (Mairesse and Moyal, 2016), to matching models on multigraphs, that is, graphs with self-loops. The evolution of the model can be described by a discrete time Markov…
The model of FCFS infinite bipartite matching was introduced in caldentey-kaplan-weiss 2009. In this model there is a sequence of items that are chosen i.i.d. from $\mathcal{C}=\{c_1,\ldots,c_I\}$ and an independent sequence of items that…
Stable matchings have been studied extensively in social choice literature. The focus has been mostly on integral matchings, in which the nodes on the two sides are wholly matched. A fractional matching, which is a convex combination of…
We study the fundamental problem of selecting optimal features for model construction. This problem is computationally challenging on large datasets, even with the use of greedy algorithm variants. To address this challenge, we extend the…
We consider a matching problem in a bipartite graph $G$ where every vertex has a capacity and a strict preference order on its neighbors. Furthermore, there is a cost function on the edge set. We assume $G$ admits a perfect matching, i.e.,…
Motivated by applications to a wide range of assemble-to-order systems, operations scheduling, healthcare systems and collaborative economy applications, we introduce a stochastic matching model on hypergraphs, extending the model in [15]…
Motivated by a wide range of assemble-to-order systems and systems of the collaborative economy applications, we introduce a stochastic matching model on hypergraphs and multigraphs, extending the model introduced by Mairesse and Moyal…
We consider an infinite sequence consisting of agents of several types and goods of several types, with a bipartite compatibility graph between agent and good types. Goods are matched with agents that appear earlier in the sequence using…
The stable matching problem is a prototype model in economics and social sciences where agents act selfishly to optimize their own satisfaction, subject to mutually conflicting constraints. A stable matching is a pairing of adjacent…
We study a stochastic variant of monotone submodular maximization problem as follows. We are given a monotone submodular function as an objective function and a feasible domain defined on a finite set, and our goal is to find a feasible…
We consider a model for repeated stochastic matching where compatibility is probabilistic, is realized the first time agents are matched, and persists in the future. Such a model has applications in the gig economy, kidney exchange, and…
We introduce and study a new model that we call the {\em matching model}. Items arrive one by one in a buffer and depart from it as soon as possible but by pairs. The items of a departing pair are said to be {\em matched}. There is a finite…
We consider a matching system where items arrive one by one at each node of a compatibility network according to Poisson processes and depart from it as soon as they are matched to a compatible item. The matching policy considered is a…
This paper studies linear stochastic approximation (SA) algorithms and their application to multi-agent systems in engineering and sociology. As main contribution, we provide necessary and sufficient conditions for convergence of linear SA…
A succesful method to describe the asymptotic behavior of a discrete time stochastic process governed by some recursive formula is to relate it to the limit sets of a well chosen mean differential equation. Under an attainability condition,…
We develop the fictitious play algorithm in the context of the linear programming approach for mean field games of optimal stopping and mean field games with regular control and absorption. This algorithm allows to approximate the mean…
We generalize several schedule matching theorems of Baiou-Balinski (Math. Oper. Res., 27 (2002), 485) and Alkan-Gale (J. Econ. Th. 112 (2003), 289) by applying a fixed point method of Fleiner (Math. Oper. Res., 28 (2003), 103). Thanks to a…
Statistical learning additions to physically derived mathematical models are gaining traction in the literature. A recent approach has been to augment the underlying physics of the governing equations with data driven Bayesian statistical…
