DOI: 10.1007/s11127-017-0411-6
Abstract: We discuss the mechanisms related to quadratic voting, from Vickrey’s counter-speculation mechanism and his second-price auction, through the family of Groves mechanisms and its most notable member, the Clarke mechanism, to the expected externality mechanism,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1007/s11721-019-00169-8
Abstract: Collective decision making is the ability of individuals to jointly make a decision without any centralized leadership, but only relying on local interactions. A special case is represented by the best-of-n problem, whereby the swarm… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.anbehav.2017.06.010
Abstract: Collective decision making is one of the main mechanisms of organization in social insects. However, individual decision making can also play an important role, depending on the type of foraging behaviour. In the termite-hunting ant… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.beproc.2021.104530
Abstract: Collective decision-making is a widespread phenomenon across organisms. Studying how animal societies make group decisions to the mutual benefit of group members, while avoiding exploitation by cheaters, can provide unique insights into the underlying cognitive… read more here.

DOI: 10.1088/1478-3975/acd297
Abstract: Social animals can use the choices made by other members of their groups as cues in decision making. Individuals must balance the private information they receive from their own sensory cues with the social information… read more here.
