Prices, Bids, Values: One ML-Powered Combinatorial Auction to Rule Them All

ICML 2025oral

We study the design of *iterative combinatorial auctions (ICAs)*. The main challenge in this domain is that the bundle space grows exponentially in the number of items. To address this, recent work has proposed machine learning (ML)-based preference elicitation algorithms that aim to elicit only th…

Machine Learning-Powered Combinatorial Clock Auction

AAAI 2024technical

We study the design of iterative combinatorial auctions (ICAs). The main challenge in this domain is that the bundle space grows exponentially in the number of items. To address this, several papers have recently proposed machine learning (ML)-based preference elicitation algorithms that aim to elic…

Bayesian Optimization-Based Combinatorial Assignment

AAAI 2023technical

We study the combinatorial assignment domain, which includes combinatorial auctions and course allocation. The main challenge in this domain is that the bundle space grows exponentially in the number of items. To address this, several papers have recently proposed machine learning-based preference e…

Monotone-Value Neural Networks: Exploiting Preference Monotonicity in Combinatorial Assignment

IJCAI 2022poster

Many important resource allocation problems involve the combinatorial assignment of items, e.g., auctions or course allocation. Because the bundle space grows exponentially in the number of items, preference elicitation is a key challenge in these domains. Recently, researchers have proposed ML-base…
