Owen_value: Owen_value (Owen value)

In GameTheoryAllocation: Tools for Calculating Allocations in Game Theory

Description

This function gives the Owen value described in Owen (1977).

Usage

Owen_value(characteristic_function, union, game = c("profit", "cost"))

Arguments

characteristic_function	A vector with the characteristic function v(S) (or c(S), if we work with a cost game), according to the order of coalitions shown in coalitions function.
union	A list with a partition of the players set. Each element of this list is a union a priori, following the proposal of Owen.
game	Characters to indicate if the game is a cost or profit game. The possibles values are "cost" or "profit".

Value

A vector with the allocation that Owen value (Owen, 1977) proposes.
