IndIssues

class negmas.preferences.IndIssues(*args, **kwargs)[source]

Bases: BasePref, Protocol

The utility value depends on each Issue value through a value function that does not depend on any other issue. (i.e. can be modeled as a LinearAdditiveUtilityFunction

Attributes Summary

`base_type`	Returns the utility_function base type ignoring discounting and similar wrappings.
`type`	Returns the preferences type.

Methods Summary

`is_session_dependent`()	Does the utiltiy of an outcome depend on the `NegotiatorMechanismInterface`?
`is_state_dependent`()	Does the utiltiy of an outcome depend on the negotiation state?
`is_stationary`()	Is the ufun stationary (i.e. utility value of an outcome is a constant)?.
`is_volatile`()	Does the utiltiy of an outcome depend on factors outside the negotiation?

Attributes Documentation

base_type: Returns the utility_function base type ignoring discounting and similar wrappings.

type: Returns the preferences type.

Methods Documentation

abstract is_session_dependent()

Does the utiltiy of an outcome depend on the NegotiatorMechanismInterface?

Return type:: bool

abstract is_state_dependent()

Does the utiltiy of an outcome depend on the negotiation state?

Return type:: bool

abstract is_stationary()

Is the ufun stationary (i.e. utility value of an outcome is a constant)?

Return type:: bool

abstract is_volatile()

Does the utiltiy of an outcome depend on factors outside the negotiation?

Return type:: bool

Remarks:

A volatile preferences is one that can change even for the same mechanism state due to outside influence
