Social World Model-Augmented Mechanism Design Policy Learning

NeurIPS 2025poster

Designing adaptive mechanisms to align individual and collective interests remains a central challenge in artificial social intelligence. Existing methods often struggle with modeling heterogeneous agents possessing persistent latent traits (e.g., skills, preferences) and dealing with complex multi-…

World Models Should Prioritize the Unification of Physical and Social Dynamics

NeurIPS 2025poster

World models, which explicitly learn environmental dynamics to lay the foundation for planning, reasoning, and decision-making, are rapidly advancing in predicting both physical dynamics and aspects of social behavior, yet predominantly in separate silos. This division results in a systemic failure…

AdaSociety: An Adaptive Environment with Social Structures for Multi-Agent Decision-Making

NeurIPS 2024poster

Traditional interactive environments limit agents' intelligence growth with fixed tasks. Recently, single-agent environments address this by generating new tasks based on agent actions, enhancing task diversity. We consider the decision-making problem in multi-agent settings, where tasks are further…

Efficient Adaptation in Mixed-Motive Environments via Hierarchical Opponent Modeling and Planning

ICML 2024poster

Despite the recent successes of multi-agent reinforcement learning (MARL) algorithms, efficiently adapting to co-players in mixed-motive environments remains a significant challenge. One feasible approach is to hierarchically model co-players' behavior based on inferring their characteristics. Howev…

Learning to Balance Altruism and Self-interest Based on Empathy in Mixed-Motive Games

NeurIPS 2024poster

Real-world multi-agent scenarios often involve mixed motives, demanding altruistic agents capable of self-protection against potential exploitation. However, existing approaches often struggle to achieve both objectives. In this paper, based on that empathic responses are modulated by learned social…

Analyzing the Generalization Capability of SGLD Using Properties of Gaussian Channels

NeurIPS 2021poster

Optimization is a key component for training machine learning models and has a strong impact on their generalization. In this paper, we consider a particular optimization method---the stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD) algorithm---and investigate the generalization of models trained by SGL…
