Reducing mechanism design to algorithm design via machine learning
We use techniques from sample-complexity in machine learning to reduce problems of incentive-compatible mechanism design to standard algorithmic questions, for a broad class of re...

Minimizing Movement: Fixed-Parameter Tractability
Abstract. We study an extensive class of movement minimization problems which arise from many practical scenarios but so far have little theoretical study. In general, these proble...
