Expectation vs. reality: towards verification of psychological games by Kwiatkowska, M, Norman, G, Parker, D, Santos, G

“…In this paper, we start to bridge that gap, proposing methods to solve PGs and implementing them within PRISM-games, a formal verification tool for stochastic games. We discuss how to model these games, highlight specific challenges for their analysis and illustrate the usefulness of our approach on several case studies, including human behaviour in traffic scenarios.…”
