Abstract
In Boolean games, each agent controls a set of Boolean variables
and has a goal represented by a propositional formula. We study
inference problems in Boolean games assuming the presence of a
PRINCIPAL who has the ability to control the agents and impose
taxation schemes. Previous work used taxation schemes to guide a
game towards certain equilibria. We present algorithms that show
how taxation schemes can also be used to infer agents' goals. We
present experimental results to demonstrate the efficacy our
algorithms. We also consider goal inference when only limited
information is available in response to a query.
