Emergent Risk Awareness in Rational Agents under Resource Constraints

Daniel Jarne Ornia, Nicholas George Bishop, Joel Dyer, Wei-Chen Lee, Ani Calinescu, J. Doyne Farmer +1

NeurIPS 2025poster

Advanced reasoning models with agentic capabilities (AI agents) are deployed to interact with humans and to solve sequential decision‑making problems under (often approximate) utility functions and internal models. When such problems have resource or failure constraints where action sequences may be…

Learning Likelihood-Free Reference Priors

Nicholas George Bishop, Daniel Jarne Ornia, Joel Dyer, Ani Calinescu, Michael J. Wooldridge

ICML 2025poster

Simulation modeling offers a flexible approach to constructing high-fidelity synthetic representations of complex real-world systems. However, the increased complexity of such models introduces additional complications, for example when carrying out statistical inference procedures. This has motivat…

Interventionally Consistent Surrogates for Complex Simulation Models

Joel Dyer, Nicholas George Bishop, Yorgos Felekis, Fabio Massimo Zennaro, Ani Calinescu, Theodoros Damoulas +1

NeurIPS 2024poster

Large-scale simulation models of complex socio-technical systems provide decision-makers with high-fidelity testbeds in which policy interventions can be evaluated and _what-if_ scenarios explored. Unfortunately, the high computational cost of such models inhibits their widespread use in policy-maki…
