Artificial intelligence (AI) is becoming more prevalent in the construction bidding process, assisting human decision-makers. However, little is known about the tactical shifts that may arise from AI participation in the market, particularly regarding bid pricing. This study aims to predict the strategic decisions AI bidders may make and their impact on bid pricing when they become dominant players in the construction bidding market. An experiment was conducted in which AI bidders competed repeatedly in an environment that simulates the decision-making process in the construction bidding phase. AI bidders were built with Q-learning algorithms, which is a popular reinforcement learning algorithm in repetitive games. Bid notice data from public construction projects in the Washington Department of Transportation (WSDOT) was given to the AI bidders, who set bid prices based on prior bidding experiences. As a result of repeated competition and learning, it was found that the AI bidders gradually learn to cooperate rather than to compete with each other, sustaining higher bid prices compared to human bidders. The study suggests the possibility of collusive behavior by AI bidders in a scenario where they are the dominant participants in the construction bidding process. These findings highlight the need to monitor and regulate the AI participants to prevent anti-competitive behavior in the construction bidding market.

Website Fingerprinting (WF) is commonly used to deanonymize the Tor users. Meanwhile, WF can also be applied to the hidden service (HS) side, to destroy the anonymity of the HS operator. However, the attacker faces the problem of no available data for training. To solve this problem, previous researchers build mirror sites and use the data collected on them to train the classifier. However, this approach still has limitations: The attacker cannot tell whether the target HS is some HS that is not in the set of sites he mirrors, i.e, an HS in the wild. To address this, we propose a novel two-phase approach to deanonymize HSs that using the website fingerprint collected on the remote node, i.e., a node on the same RP circuit with HS. Our approach does not rely on mirror sites because we decouple feature extraction from classification, so that mirror sites are only involved in the training of the feature extractor and are not related to the classification process. The experimental results show that our attack is effective in both closed-world and open-world scenarios.
