NEV battery recycling innovation strategy considering pro-social behavior from the game theory perspective

Technological innovation serves as the core driving force for achieving sustainable and circular transportation systems. However, during the recycling process, consumers’ pro-social behavior such as willingness to return used batteries and support green initiatives, directly influences recycling rates and incentivizes recyclers to adopt advanced technologies. To explore this dynamic, this paper constructs a closed-loop supply chain (CLSC) decision-making game model involving new energy vehicle (NEV) manufacturers, recyclers, and consumers, with a focus on power battery recycling. The study aims to investigate the impact of technological innovation subsidy and the level of consumers’ pro-social behavior on the innovation decisions of recycling agents. The findings reveal that: (1) Pro-social behavior significantly enhances the power battery recycling rate by increasing consumers’ willingness to participate in waste battery recycling and support green initiatives, thereby incentivizing recyclers to actively adopt technological innovations. (2) Both NEV manufacturers and power battery recyclers have a free-rider scenario in their technological innovations, and higher free-rider revenues will discourage both parties from technological innovations. (3) Greater subsidies can effectively promote the technological innovation of NEV manufacturers and recyclers, and manufacturers are more sensitive to government subsidies for technological innovation.

Relaxed Class-consensus Consistency for Semi-supervised Semantic Segmentation

The key to semi-supervised semantic segmentation lies in how to fully exploit a large amount of unlabeled data to improve the model’s generalization performance. Most methods are lured into the trap of taking each class independently (i.e., class-independent consistency) and neglecting the fact that there exist semantic dependencies among classes. In this paper, we analyze the bottlenecks of class-independent consistency inherent in previous methods and offer a fresh perspective of cooperative game theory to explicitly encourage class-consensus alignment (i.e., class-consensus consistency between the teacher (weak augmented view) and student network (strong augmented view). We formulate classes as players in an cooperative game to model their interpretable consensus and shed light on the possibility of closer collaboration between consensus themselves and consistency regularization, yielding more comprehensive and effective supervision signals. To this end, we carefully design the class-consensus consistency without introducing any external knowledge to model class structure information which renders better interpretability, and further, prepend relaxed class-consensus consistency (RCC) to unlock the potential of modeling class consensus by relaxing the strict alignment of direct class consensus values to ranking alignment. Extensive experimental results on multiple benchmarks demonstrate that RCC performs favorably against state-of-the-art methods. Particularly in the low-data regimes, RCC achieves significant improvements.

Teaching innovation in internal control courses integrating ideological education and game theory

This study aims to propose an innovative teaching model for Internal Control courses, integrating course ideology and game theory perspectives to enhance learning engagement. The developed model—termed “Integration, Co-learning, Co-empathy”—comprises three phases: initial design, mid-term application, and final assessment. Integration constructs a cohesive knowledge structure; Collaborative Learning boosts students’ practical skills; empathy strengthens emotional literacy and fosters a positive teacher-student relationship. By merging ideological and political education concepts with game theory principles, the research optimizes course design and teaching strategies. It offers insights into the continuous development of Internal Control courses in accounting programs, providing practical recommendations for university-level curriculum reform. Ultimately, it targets improved educational effectiveness and promotion of comprehensive learning.

Strategies for Enhancing the Adaptability of Vocational Education IoT Application Technology Talents from the Perspective of Game Theory

The explosive growth of the Internet of Things industry and the structural con-tradiction in talent cultivation have given rise to a complex game relationship among schools, enterprises, and students. This article constructs a three party dynamic evolutionary game model, revealing core game factors such as imbal-anced distribution of interests, institutional design flaws, conflicts in subject roles, and information asymmetry in school enterprise cooperation. Research has shown that net profit from enterprise participation is a key variable driving cooperation, and student rights protection and third-party evaluation mecha-nisms can effectively improve the efficiency of game equilibrium. Through the three in one reform framework of "policy incentives collaborative mechanisms subject empowerment", measures such as differentiated subsidies, industry de-mand warning platforms, and flexible credit systems are proposed to promote the game from zero sum competition to symbiotic value-added.

The Legal Framework of the World Trade Organization from the Perspective of Game Theory in International Law

Game theory in international law is one of the new and innovative perspectives in the field of philosophy of international law. The difference of this perspective is that instead of mere theorizing, it seeks a logical and practical explanation of international legal rules and structures. In this perspective, the rules of game theory are used for scientific reasoning and expressing theoretical frameworks. Game theory was first proposed in 1944 by mathematician John von Neumann and accompanied by economist Oscar Morgenstern in the field of economic issues.But since then, it has gradually entered other scientific fields, including international relations, sociology and other scientific disciplines. In recent years, and for the first time in international law, two great thinkers, Jack Goldsmith and Eric Pasner, have used this theory to explain how and why international customs are formed. This has attracted the attention of international law scholars as a new approach. This article seeks to explain the legal structure of the World Trade Organization from the perspective of this theory. The authors believe that their findings will lead to a better understanding of the legal structure of this organization. To this end, first, the rules required by game theory are introduced and briefly explained, and then, from the perspective of the aforementioned materials, cases and agreements from the entire WTO collection are examined and logically proven, which are generally applicable to the entire legal structure of this organization.

Influence of E-commerce Economy on Consumer Decision Making

In recent years, with the vigorous rise of the electronic economy, e-commerce platforms have sprung up like mushrooms, and their types are increasingly rich and diverse, covering B2B (business to business), B2C (business to consumer), C2C (consumer to consumer) and o2o (online to offline). The coexistence and competition of these models have greatly promoted the rapid development of e-commerce. However, it is worth noting that the laws and regulations in the field of e-commerce are not perfect, which to a certain extent has triggered a game between merchants and buyers in Internet consumption behavior, and the two sides often have disputes due to the vague definition of rights and interests. In addition, the rise of e-commerce has also had a far-reaching impact on the logistics and transportation industry, and promoted the transformation and upgrading of the industry. From the perspective of game theory, this paper attempts to deeply analyze the behavioral logic of buyers and sellers in e-commerce, tap the key factors affecting their decision-making, and build a model to judge the mixed strategy of buyers and sellers. At the same time, combined with the characteristics of e-commerce, the article also discusses its specific impact on the development of logistics industry in detail.

Optimizing the Future: A Game Theory to Tumor Therapeutic Strategies

BackgroundCancer poses significant economic and societal burdens on countries in the coming decades. During chemotherapy, patients frequently encounter adverse reactions. Recent research has revealed that Chinese medicine plays a crucial role in mitigating the side effects of chemotherapy. Therefore, in this article, we propose that the cancer treatment process can be likened to an unequal game. To refine treatment strategies, we suggest employing the Steinberg model to incorporate Chinese medicine into the chemotherapy regimen for tumor treatment.ResultsWe found that when malignant tumors exhibit vigorous proliferation, doctors should administer Chinese medicine in conjunction with chemotherapy drugs, continuously optimizing the therapeutic effect of the Chinese medicine. Upon reaching a specific threshold in the treatment effect of the Chinese medicine, doctors may appropriately augment the dosage of chemotherapy drugs, building upon the initial regimen. Conversely, in cases where the proliferation ability of malignant tumors is weak, the dosage of chemotherapy and the adjuvant therapy with Chinese medicine should be kept in a relatively balanced state. Once the effect of the Chinese medicine attains a particular threshold, the dosage of chemotherapy can be concurrently increased to achieve a superior therapeutic result.ConclusionsFrom a game theory perspective, doctors can devise strategies to minimize drug toxicity and improve tumor treatment outcomes by coordinating the use of chemotherapy drugs with appropriate adjustments to Chinese medicine therapy methods.

How government intervention and supply chain competition and cooperation affect power battery recycling from a game theory perspective?

Abstract In this paper, I delve into two supply chains, each composed of one battery supplier and one new energy vehicle manufacturer. Considering government intervention, competition, and cooperation, I analyze six scenarios. It is found that vertical/horizontal cooperation benefits the power battery-recycling rate, while the deposit-subsidy policy has limited impact, so the government should raise the subsidy. When some firms cooperate while others do not, it benefits the cooperators and harms non-cooperators. Scenario C maximizes the supply chain’s overall profit, yet Scenarios CC or TC are not always best for firm profitability. Notably, social welfare peaks in Scenario TC.

A game theory perspective to power acquisition during CEO transition period

PurposeThis study examines how CEOs-elect navigate power dynamics with incumbent CEOs during leadership transitions, focusing on their strategic choices – cooperate, defect or disengage – based on perceptions of the incumbent’s behavior.Design/methodology/approachUsing the game theory framework and insights from 22 interviews with executives from large Canadian organizations, we analyze CEOs-elect’s decision-making from nomination to ascension.FindingsCEOs-elect cooperate when they anticipate the incumbent to cooperate and defect when they anticipate defection. When faced with uncertainty or signs of disengagement from the incumbent, CEOs-elect strategically choose to disengage, adopting a “No Play” strategy to preserve board trust and organizational stability.Research limitations/implicationsFindings are based on large Canadian organizations, which may limit applicability to smaller firms, family businesses or different cultural contexts. Future research should examine CEO transitions across diverse organizational and cultural settings.Practical implicationsBoards should recognize proactively manage power struggles during transitions, ensuring support for CEOs-elect and promoting cooperation with incumbents. Understanding perceived incumbent strategies can improve transition planning, minimize conflicts and improve organizational outcomes.Originality/valueThis research introduces “No Play” as a novel strategic option in CEO transitions, contributing to game theory and power dynamics literature. It also bridges gaps in understanding by linking strategic choices of CEOs-elect to perceptions of incumbent behavior and stakeholder trust.

Analysis of environmental art design practice and space utilization based on game theory perspective

Abstract How to effectively and fully utilize public space to meet the needs of multiple parties has become an important point that cannot be ignored in the current environmental art design. This paper explores the coordination mechanism of multi-party relationships in environmental art design using a game theory perspective as its starting point. This paper first introduces the components, categories, and specific concepts of coalition games, and then discusses the aesthetic creation and functional optimization of public spaces in environmental art design. Combining the principles of game theory and environmental art design, it uses the public space design of a neighborhood as an example to deeply analyze the most important game relationships in the design. Then, this paper establishes the game mechanism between developers and owners, and between owners and owners, by studying the game relationship between developers and owners. In the application practice of the game mechanism in this paper, the average summer wind speed of a community after optimization of the wind environment increased by 0.53 m/s compared with the pre-optimization period, and the average PMV value of a community after optimization of the outdoor environment in summer decreased by 0.23. It shows that under the guidance of this paper’s game mechanism, the multi-party relationship of a community has made a mutually beneficial choice of strategies in public space, which effectively promotes the optimization of the environment of the public space and improves the comfort of the residents. It is effective in promoting the environmental optimization of public space and improving the comfort of residents.

Simulation Analysis of Big Data Discriminatory Pricing Behavior from the Perspective of Game Theory

With the increasing popularity of big data technology, some enterprises use the massive amount of consumer data collected for the analysis of consumers’ purchasing power and preferences to implement discriminatory pricing and increase profits, with consumer rights infringed upon. Therefore, it is of great significance to study how consumers respond to big data discriminatory pricing (BDDP) behavior by enterprises. This article categorizes consumers into new and old users. In the strategy sets of whether consumers choose to purchase and whether enterprises engage in discriminatory pricing, the costs and benefits of consumer rights protection and enterprise compensation are considered, respectively. A new “government-consumer-enterprise” tripartite game model is proposed, along with an analysis of different behavioral strategy combinations of the three parties. The impact of key parameters on each party is studied through simulation analysis to provide a reference for cracking down on BDDP behavior. The experimental results indicate that increasing government punishment and credibility can effectively suppress the BDDP behavior by enterprises; however, increasing the compensation limit for enterprises will only have a certain effect in the early stage; the higher the evaluation value of products or services by consumers, the less effectiveness it is in suppressing the BDDP behavior by enterprises.

A Preliminary Study on the Development Issues and Governance Strategies of China􀆳s Photovoltaic Industry in the Post Subsidy Period from the Perspective of Game Theory

The photovoltaic industry is a typical representative of the new energy industry and an important component of China' s strategic emerging industries, as well as an important guarantee for promoting green and low-carbon development in our country. Although China' s photovoltaic industry started relatively late, over the past decade, driven by the national photovoltaic subsidy policy, the industry has witnessed rapid growth and China has now emerged as the world' s largest country in terms of photovoltaic installed capacity. Nevertheless, during the industrial development process, a series of issues have arisen, such as blind project expansion, excessive reliance on financial subsidies, excessive financial pressure and a lack of technological innovation. To promote the healthy and sustainable development of the photovoltaic industry and alleviate the pressure on financial funds, the government has gradually facilitated the reduction of subsidies and completely eliminated subsidies for photovoltaic power generation projects in 2022. With the proposition and in-depth implementation of China' s “carbon peak and carbon neutrality” strategic goals, the photovoltaic industry, as a representative of low-carbon and clean energy, has been entrusted with a new mission. In light of this, based on the perspective of game theory, by analyzing the evolution of China' s photovoltaic industry subsidy policy and the corresponding changes in the photovoltaic industry' s development, combined with interviews with practitioners, this paper identifies and diagnoses the constraints facing the development of China' s photovoltaic industry in the post-subsidy era and puts forward specific governance countermeasures and suggestions from the aspects of government governance, industrial coordination and the public.

Strategic Solutions: Game Theory Perspectives on Climate Change in South Asian Cli-Fi

Climate change is a significant concern to South Asia, requiring innovative policy development and public participation approaches. This study explores the application of game theory to analyze climate strategies depicted in two significant South Asian climate fiction (cli-fi) novels: The works of Amitav Ghosh's "The Hungry Tide" and Indra Sinha's "Animal's People." To examine how game theoretic analysis of cli-fi narratives can enable their contribution to climate policy and activism for South Asia. The approach adopted in this study involves the combined textual analysis of the selected novels, game theoretic modelling of climate scenarios described within, and comparative analysis of fictional approaches to climate problem solving with real-world climate policies. The analysis focuses on three key game theoretic concepts: common pool resource problems, negotiation games, and behavioural games. Both novels relegate intricate game theoretic environments for environmental decision-making and climate activism. Both "The Hungry Tide" and "Animal's People" explore the problem of common pool resources (CPR) within the Sundarbans ecosystem and the negotiation dynamics between victims of disaster and corporation’s post-disaster. Both narratives stress the need for local knowledge and community-based tools to deal with climate vulnerabilities. Through a game theoretic analysis, the critical insights from the game theoretic analysis provide essential guidance for formulating climate policy, including the importance of transparency, adaptive management strategies and robust legal frameworks to hold corporations accountable
