Research Events : Research Seminars

Research Seminars help to establish a culture of sharing and peer discussion of the research that scholars are engaged in. They help to inform the community of the type of research that is occurring at an institution, foster collaborations, and engagement with the larger scholarly and practitioner communities. The University Research Seminar series will feature topics in engineering and computer science, health, humanities, and business management and are open to all members of the VinUni community.

I’m Doing as Well as I Can: Modeling People as Rational Finite Automata

Professor Joseph Halpern, Professor of Mathematics and Computer Science at Cornell University. (Full Bio: https://math.cornell.edu/joseph-halpern) Abstract: Several Nobel Prizes have been awarded for work showing  that humans do not behave as maximum utility maximizers, as standard economic theory predicts.  Yet they are “predictably irrational”:  their deviations from rational behavior are quite systematic.  Our goal is to […]
