Economic benefit evaluation of water resources allocation in transboundary basins based on particle swarm optimization algorithm and cooperative game model-A case study of Lancang-Mekong River Basin.

ABSTRACT: The present work aims to find the optimal solution of Nash Equilibrium (NE) in the traditional Game Theory (GT) applied to water resources allocation. Innovatively, this paper introduces Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) into GT to propose a cooperative game model to solve the NE problem. Firstly, the basic theory of the PSO algorithm and cooperative game model is described. Secondly, the PSO-based cooperative game model is explained. Finally, the PSO-based cooperative game model is compared with the Genetic Algorithm (GA) to test the performance. Besides taking the countries in Lancang Mekong River Basin as the research object, this paper discusses each country's water consumption and economic benefits under different cooperation patterns. Then, a series of improvement measures and sugges
