Self Organizing Supply Chains for Micro-Prediction: Present and Future uses of the ROAR Protocol

Understand

A multi-agent system is trialed as a means of crowd-sourcing inexpensive but high quality streams of predictions.

• Each agent is a microservice embodying statistical models and endowed with economic self-interest.
• The ability to fork and modify simple agents is granted to a large number of employees in a firm and empirical lessons are reported.
• We suggest that one plausible trajectory for this project is the creation of a Prediction Web.
