Abstract

In this paper, we present four alternative solution methods to Shapley iteration for the solution of stochastic matrix games. We first combine the extended matrix norm method for stochastic matrix games with Shapley iteration and then state and prove the weak and strong hybrid versions of Shapley iterations. Then, we present the semi-extended matrix norm and iterative semi-extended matrix norm methods, which are analytic-solution-free methods, for finding the approximate solution of stochastic matrix games without determining the strategy sets. We illustrate comparisons between the Shapley iteration, weak and strong hybrid Shapley iterations, semi-extended matrix norm method, and iterative semi-extended matrix norm method with several examples. The results reveal that the strong and weak hybrid Shapley iterations improve the Shapley iteration and decrease the number of iterations, and the strong hybrid Shapley iteration outperforms all the other proposed methods. Finally, we compare these methods and present their performance analyses for large-scale stochastic matrix games as well.
