Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Allow thresholds to adapt to the number of players remaining | Competing employers in the edge-arrival secretary game · Adaptive edge-arrival game, k players | equilibrium thresholds: r∗k < r∗k−1 < · · · < r∗1 = 1/e | Helped |
| Use a fixed threshold instead of updating it as players leave | Two-player edge-arrival secretary game · Two-player game | equilibrium threshold: 0.29574 -> 0.29533... | Mixed |
| Increase the number of players using a symmetric fixed-threshold strategy | Non-adaptive edge-arrival secretary game · k-player game | equilibrium threshold: 1/k − 1/k2 < r∗(k) < 1/k | Hurt |
