Certifiable Reinforcement Learning

joint with Sam Burden (UW); Sam Coogan (GaTech)
Goal: develop algorithms for reinforcement learning with certificates of performance with assessment on benchmark problems. Applications include intelligent infrastructure (societal-scale CPS) and human-in-the-loop systems.
CPS 

Adaptive Mechanism Design
Goal: in situations of asymmetric information, design incentive or information shaping schemes for changing user behavior via algorithmic mechanisms, with provable guarantees on performance, that leverage behavioral models capturing salient features of the human decision-making process.

Performance Guarantees for Multi-Agent Learning
Goal: derive performance guarantees for classes of (competitive and cooperative) multi-agent learning algorithms in non-stationary environments. Such tools are useful for both analysis of the behavior of coupled learning agents as well as synthesizing mechanisms for shaping agent behavior.
