Interrelationships between Prey and Predators and How Predators Choose Their Prey to Maximize Their Utility Functions

In this work, we model the relationship between prey and predators by studying the interactive behavior of this prey-predator model and using the change of prey. The objective is to maximize the profit function of each predator by seeking the strategy provided by each predator to maximize its profit...
