Inspired by applications in pricing and contract design, we study the maximization of one- sided Lipschitz functions, which only provide the (weaker) guarantee that they do not grow …
Motivated by pricing in ad exchange markets, we consider the problem of robust learning of reserve prices against strategic buyers in repeated contextual second-price auctions …
One of the central problems in auction design is developing an incentive-compatible mechanism that maximizes the auctioneer's expected revenue. While theoretical …

Contextual dynamic pricing aims to set personalized prices based on sequential interactions with customers. At each time period, a customer who is interested in purchasing a product …
The society's insatiable appetites for personal data are driving the emergence of data markets, allowing data consumers to launch customized queries over the datasets collected …
The agency problem emerges in today's large scale machine learning tasks, where the learners are unable to direct content creation or enforce data collection. In this work, we …
