Diffusion Source Identification on Networks with Statistical Confidence
Quinlan Dawkins, Tianxi Li, Haifeng Xu
Diffusion source identification on networks is a problem of fundamental importance in a broad class of applications, including rumor controlling and virus identification. Though th…
Regret-Minimizing Bayesian Persuasion
Yakov Babichenko, Inbal Talgam-Cohen, Haifeng Xu +1
We study a Bayesian persuasion setting with binary actions (adopt and reject) for Receiver. We examine the following question - how well can Sender perform, in terms of persuading…
Incentivizing Exploration in Linear Bandits under Information Gap
Huazheng Wang, Haifeng Xu, Chuanhao Li +2
We study the problem of incentivizing exploration for myopic users in linear bandits, where the users tend to exploit arm with the highest predicted reward instead of exploring. In…
Optimal Pricing of Information
Shuze Liu, Weiran Shen, Haifeng Xu
A decision maker is choosing between an active action (e.g., purchase a house, invest certain stock) and a passive action. The payoff of the active action depends on the buyer's pr…
Learning to Persuade on the Fly: Robustness Against Ignorance
You Zu, Krishnamurthy Iyer, Haifeng Xu
Motivated by information sharing in online platforms, we study repeated persuasion between a sender and a stream of receivers where at each time, the sender observes a payoff-relev…
Saving Stochastic Bandits from Poisoning Attacks via Limited Data Verification
Anshuka Rangi, Long Tran-Thanh, Haifeng Xu +1
We study bandit algorithms under data poisoning attacks in a bounded reward setting. We consider a strong attacker model in which the attacker can observe both the selected actions…
