Yoav Shoham (Hebrew: יואב שוהם; born 22 January 1956) is a computer scientist and a professor emeritus at Stanford University. [1] His research spans artificial intelligence, logic and game theory. He has also founded and sold several AI companies.
In the run-up to an online auction in 2006 of radio-spectrum licences by America's Federal Communications Commission, Paul Milgrom, a consultant and Stanford University professor, customised his game-theory software to assist a consortium of bidders. The result was a triumph.
The Stanford University Department of Economics appointed Kreps the Adams Distinguished Professor of Management. He is known for his analysis of dynamic choice models and non-cooperative game theory, particularly the idea of sequential equilibrium, which he developed with Stanford Business School colleague Robert B. Wilson.
He then moved to Stanford University, receiving both his Master's and PhD also in Operations Research there in 1973 and 1974 respectively. [8] After leaving Stanford, Roth went on to teach at the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign, which he left in 1982 to become the Andrew W. Mellon professor of economics at the University of Pittsburgh.
Kevin Leyton-Brown (born May 12, 1975) is a Professor of Computer Science at the University of British Columbia. [1] He received his Ph.D. at Stanford University in 2003. [2] He was the recipient of a 2014 NSERC E.W.R. Steacie Memorial Fellowship, [3] a 2013/14 Killam Teaching Prize, [4] and a 2013 Outstanding Young Computer Science Researcher Prize from the Canadian Association of Computer ...
John Charles Chenoweth McKinsey (30 April 1908 – 26 October 1953), usually cited as J. C. C. McKinsey, was an American mathematician known for his work on game theory and mathematical logic, [2] particularly, modal logic.
The revelation principle is a fundamental result in mechanism design, social choice theory, and game theory which shows it is always possible to design a strategy-resistant implementation of a social decision-making mechanism (such as an electoral system or market). [1] It can be seen as a kind of mirror image to Gibbard's theorem.
