“…Some works (Chen et al, 2021) considered a Prisoner's Dilemma played on a square lattice with four types of player emotion: joy, anger, regret, and neutral. Players' emotions were quantified, and accumulated over the most recent interactions.…”

Social dilemmas are situations of inter-dependent decision making in which individual rationality can lead to outcomes with poor social qualities. The ubiquity of social dilemmas in social, biological, and computational systems has generated substantial research across these diverse disciplines into the study of mechanisms for avoiding deficient outcomes by promoting and maintaining mutual cooperation. Much of this research is focused on studying how individuals faced with a dilemma can learn to cooperate by adapting their behaviours according to their past experience. In particular, three types of learning approaches have been studied: evolutionary game-theoretic learning, reinforcement learning, and best-response learning. This article is a comprehensive integrated survey of these learning approaches in the context of dilemma games. We formally introduce dilemma games and their inherent challenges. We then outline the three learning approaches and, for each approach, provide a survey of the solutions proposed for dilemma resolution. Finally, we provide a comparative summary and discuss directions in which further research is needed.

“…Emotions can prompt individuals to change their strategies. For instance, individuals with a high-payoff tendency may not adhere to their strategy due to alienation and dissatisfaction, especially if their strategies are not dominant in the community [32,33]. In addition, emotions are easily affected by the environment, and individuals can also imitate each other's emotions [25].…”

The emotions of individuals are one of the most important factors for affecting cooperation in human society. An individual’s acceptability of her/his own strategy, as one kind of powerful emotion that can be influenced by the neighbors’ strategies, can prompt the individual to adjust her/his strategy in the evolution process of a spatial game. Based on this fact, a spatial prisoner’s dilemma game with acceptability involved is studied in this paper. The average acceptability in the community is introduced to the individual’s fitness in the model. The numerical experiments show that individuals considering average acceptability can greatly facilitate cooperation under certain conditions. Furthermore, when the temptation value is small, rational individuals to blind conformity behavior can promote cooperative behavior, but for a high temptation value, rational individuals are not conducive to cooperation. These results may offer insights to comprehensively understand the mechanism of emotion promoting cooperation.

“…In order to more appropriately describe the mutual effect in evolutionary processes, emotion mechanism is involved as a link of resources and game strategies. Emotion is a typical mechanism in the game model, which is used to describe the states of players in the game processes [29], which has been demonstrated to have a strong influence on the choice of game strategies [30]. Therefore, game strategies, limited resources and the emotions of players as three parts can be combined into a game model, where game strategies determine the allocation of limited resources, the quantities of resources owned by players affect their emotion and further influences the choice of their strategies.…”

As for collective behaviors in reality, the occurrence of similar events in group is not independent, in which the occurrence historical events, such as frequencies, interval time, etc., would have an incentive effect on their recurrence probability. In spired by this, Hawkes process is first introduced into evolutionary game model. Different from the existing works, the game behaviors in a networked group change from certainty to probabilistic behaviors affected by historical events. Specifically, an incentive effect will occur with the occurrence of game behaviors as well as decay with the lapse of time. Based on the above probabilistic game mechanism, a multi-game model is proposed, where players are assumed to be emotional for their owned resources. In general, the results of game behaviors would determine the allocation of resources, and the owned quantities of resources would affect the emotion of players. As a feedback loop, it finally affects the game strategy of players. In experiments, the mutual effect of limited resources and game strategy based on probabilistic game mechanism is quantitatively studied. Meanwhile, a phase transition of cooperative behaviors is explored, which is mainly arising from the probabilistic game processes and the evolving emotions of players.
