Markets and Machine Learning

I am a fifth-year Ph.D. Candidate in Engineering-Economic Systems at the CS and AI Laboratory and the College of Computing, MIT. I study how platforms learn what users want and decide who gets what online, and why. My supervisors Alessandro Bonatti, Dylan Hadfield-Menell, Eric Maskin and David Parkes guide me through this adventure.
