Learning from People

34-401 (Grier Room) The Stata Center (34-401), 50 Vassar Street, Cambridge, United States

Abstract: Learning from people represents a new and expanding frontier for data science. Two critical challenges in this domain are of developing algorithms for robust learning and designing incentive mechanisms for eliciting high-quality data. In this talk, I describe progress on these challenges in the context of two canonical settings, namely those of ranking and…
