In this paper we obtain sufficient and necessary conditions on the number of samples required for exact recovery of the pure-strategy Nash equilibria (PSNE) set of a graphical game from noisy observations of joint actions. We consider sparse linear influence games -a parametric class of graphical games with linear payoffs, and represented by directed graphs of n nodes (players) and in-degree of at most k. We show that one can efficiently recover the PSNE set of a linear influence game with O k 2 log n samples, under very general observation models. On the other hand, we show that Ω (k log n) samples are necessary for any procedure to recover the PSNE set from observations of joint actions.
REF obtained necessary and sufficient conditions for learning linear influence games under arbitrary observation model.
