Imagine you had a friend who gave different answers to the same question, depending on how you asked it. “What’s the capital of Peru?” would get one answer, and “Is Lima the capital of Peru?” would ...

A researcher has solved a nearly 60-year-old game theory dilemma called the wall pursuit game, with implications for better reasoning about autonomous systems such as driver-less vehicles. To ...

Control theory is the study of how one can use feedback to modify the behavior of a system — such as a robot, vehicle, chemical or biological process, power grid, stock portfolio, or an ecosystem — so ...

Elkind, a pioneer of algorithmic game theory, computational social choice, and artificial intelligence, joined Northwestern Engineering’s Department of Computer Science on November 1 as a Ginni ...

To understand how driverless vehicles can navigate the complexities of the road, researchers often use game theory — mathematical models representing the way rational agents behave strategically to ...
