Regression games

Abstract

The solution of a TU cooperative game can be a distribution of the value of the grand coalition, i.e. it can be a distribution of the payoff (utility) all the players together achieve. In a regression model, the evaluation of the explanatory variables can be a distribution of the overall fit, i.e. the fit of the model every regressor variable is involved. Furthermore, we can take regression models as TU cooperative games where the explanatory (regressor) variables are the players. In this paper we introduce the class of regression games, characterize it and apply the Shapley value to evaluating the explanatory variables in regression models. In order to support our approach we consider Young’s (Int. J. Game Theory 14:65–72, 1985 ) axiomatization of the Shapley value, and conclude that the Shapley value is a reasonable tool to evaluate the explanatory variables of regression models.
