Abstract: | In sequential plays with two players, the players have the opportunity to use information on opponents’ past moves in selecting a move for the current stage. Strategies for Player II are considered in our study, in particular, play against the random past (PRP) strategy. In this paper, PRP strategy will be reviewed and discussed. Hannan consistency of PRP strategy in term of regret (difference in average loss and an envelope loss) on k-extended Bayes envelope risk problem in matching binary bits game will be shown. The simulation of two-experts selection problem on real experts’ forecasting data of IBM share earnings confirms the consistency of PRP strategy. |
