Learning and Decision-Making with
Strategic Feedback

StratML workshop @ NeurIPS'21

Tuesday, December 14, 2021

Watch it here: https://nips.cc/virtual/2021/workshop/21854

Workshop Summary

The workshop aims to create a dialogue between different communities broadly studying the dynamics of decision-making and learning with strategic feedback. Technical topics of interest include, but are not limited to, learning in games and economics, optimization in dynamic environments, strategic classification and performativity, behavioral economics, and social welfare in strategic environments. The goal is to identify common points of interest and open problems in the different subareas, as well as to encourage cross-disciplinary collaboration.
