Combining Deep Reinforcement Learning and Search with Generative Models for Game-Theoretic Opponent Modeling

IJCAI 2025

Opponent modeling methods typically involve two crucial steps: building a belief distribution over opponents' strategies, and exploiting this opponent model by playing a best response. However, existing approaches typically require domain-specific heurstics to come up with such a model, and algorith

Explicit Exploration for High-Welfare Equilibria in Game-Theoretic Multiagent Reinforcement Learning

ICML 2025poster

Iterative extension of empirical game models through deep reinforcement learning (RL) has proved an effective approach for finding equilibria in complex games. When multiple equilibria exist, we may also be interested in finding solutions with particular characteristics. We address this issue of equ…

Fraud Risk Mitigation in Real-Time Payments: A Strategic Agent-Based Analysis

IJCAI 2024poster

Whereas standard financial mechanisms for payment may take days to finalize, real-time payments (RTPs) provide immediate processing and final receipt of funds. The speed of settlement benefits customers, but raises vulnerability to fraud. We seek to understand how bank nodes may strategically mitiga…

Market Manipulation: An Adversarial Learning Framework for Detection and Evasion

IJCAI 2020poster

We propose an adversarial learning framework to capture the evolving game between a regulator who develops tools to detect market manipulation and a manipulator who obfuscates actions to evade detection. The model includes three main parts: (1) a generator that learns to adapt original manipulation…
