Just as simple models from decision theory provide context for understanding the decisions of complex humans, so too can they for complex AI systems. Bayesian decision theory considers an agent receiving a signal that is correlated with the state, choosing an action, and obtaining a payoff that depends on both the state and action. With Bayesian updating and the revelation principle, the signal becomes a posterior belief and the decision problem becomes a scoring rule. Given a scoring rule, baseline performance is the optimal score under the prior; benchmark performance is the optimal score under the posterior; and the optimal scoring rule — framed as a mechanism design problem — maximizes the difference between them. The talk reviews this theory and applies it to (a) evaluate prediction as a service, (b) behavioral experiments on human-AI decision making, (c) develop proper scoring rules for text (e.g. for training language models to hallucinate less).<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Short bio:</strong><br>\r\nProf. Hartline’s research introduces design and analysis methodologies from computer science to understand and improve outcomes of economic, legal, and AI systems. Optimal behavior and outcomes in complex environments are complex and, therefore, should not be expected; instead, the theory of approximation can show that simple and natural behaviors are approximately optimal in complex environments. This approach is applied to auction theory and mechanism design in his graduate textbook Mechanism Design and Approximation which is under preparation.<br>\r\n<br>\r\nProf. Hartline received his Ph.D. in 2003 from the University of Washington under the supervision of Anna Karlin. He was a postdoctoral fellow at Carnegie Mellon University under the supervision of Avrim Blum; and subsequently a researcher at Microsoft Research in Silicon Valley.

Those who wish to stay ahead of this change need to move from supply chain management to value chain management thinking. <strong>Move beyond simply managing operations to realizing growth, innovation and sustainability goals.</strong><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThis Certificate of Advanced Studies (CAS) in Resilient Value Chain Management) runs from April to July 2027 at the EPFL Campus in Lausanne.<br>\r\n \r\n<ul>\r\n\t<li>12 days on Campus</li>\r\n\t<li>4 modules</li>\r\n\t<li>Flexible format</li>\r\n\t<li>Part-time</li>\r\n\t<li>15 ECTS</li>\r\n</ul>", "image_description": "", "creation_date": "2026-06-26T11:44:04", "last_modification_date": "2026-09-14T08:22:36", "link_label": "Webpage", "link_url": "https://www.epfl-executive-education.ch/cas-resilient-value-chain/", "canceled": "False", "cancel_reason": "", "place_and_room": "", "url_place_and_room": "", "url_online_room": "", "spoken_languages": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/spoken_languages/2/?format=api" ], "speaker": "", "organizer": "<a href=\"http://go.epfl.ch/srvc\">EPFL Executive Education - Sustainable Resilient Value Chains</a>", "contact": "[email protected]", "is_internal": "False", "theme": "", "vulgarization": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Tout public", "en_label": "General public" }, "registration": { "id": 1, "fr_label": "Sur inscription", "en_label": "Registration required" }, "keywords": "", "file": null, "icalendar_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/export/121187/", "category": { "id": 4, "code": "DIVERS", "fr_label": "Autres types d’événement", "en_label": "Miscellaneous", "activated": true }, "academic_calendar_category": null, "domains": [], "mementos": [ "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/1/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/3/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/6/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/437/?format=api", "https://memento.epfl.ch/api/v1/mementos/438/?format=api" ] }, { "id": 70156, "title": "CAS Circular Value Networks 2026", "slug": "cas-circular-value-networks-2026", "event_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/event/cas-circular-value-networks-2026", "visual_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31616/200x112.jpg", "visual_large_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31616/720x405.jpg", "visual_maxsize_url": "https://memento.epfl.ch/image/31616/max-size.jpg", "lang": "en", "start_date": "2026-10-01", "end_date": "2026-11-28", "start_time": null, "end_time": null, "description": "<em><strong>Leading Sustainable Business Operations</strong></em><br>\r\n<br>\r\nThe ability to balance sustainability, agility and resilient value chains is quickly becoming the defining differentiator for business operations professionals.

Achieving net-zero transport requires coordinated action across energy carriers, carbon flows and mitigation of other pollutants. This talk presents a multiscale engineering framework for sustainable mobility, organised around three complementary pathways: <u>f</u>uel development (F), <u>g</u>reenhouse-gas management (G) and mitigating <u>h</u>armful emissions beyond CO<sub>2</sub> (H). First, using solar-driven CO<sub>2</sub> conversion as an example, I will show how the precise transport of light, heat and fluids enables the coordinated design of materials, devices and systems, maximising solar-to-fuel conversion efficiency. Second, I will explore on-board carbon capture for road and maritime transport, together with distributed carbon-removal networks that use existing vehicles, ventilation systems and transport infrastructure. Third, I will discuss particulate matter generated by brake and tyre wear, illustrating how materials engineering can balance filtration efficiency, pressure drop and energy demand. Finally, the talk considers how techno-economic assessment and the interplay between technology, business and policy can move laboratory innovations towards industrial deployment.<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<br>\r\n<strong>Biography: </strong>Dr Xiangkun (Elvis) Cao (<a href=\"https://profiles.imperial.ac.uk/elvis.cao\">https://profiles.imperial.ac.uk/elvis.cao</a>) is currently an Assistant Professor at Imperial College London, holding joint appointments in Mechanical Engineering and the Grantham Institute. Cao leads the Laboratory for Integrated Green Harvesting & Transport, the LIGHT Lab, which seeks to engineer the physical systems for a sustainable future. Before joining Imperial, Cao was a Schmidt Science Fellow at MIT, where he pursued integrated carbon capture and utilisation under the guidance of Professor Ted Sargent. He received his PhD in Mechanical Engineering from Cornell University, his MEng in Materials Engineering from McGill University, and dual bachelor’s degrees in Energy and Power Engineering and English Literature from Xi’an Jiaotong University. He has published more than 30 first- or corresponding-author papers in journals including <em>Joule</em>, <em>Matter</em>, <em>Device</em> and <em>Advanced Materials</em>. Cao was named one of MIT Technology Review’s 35 Innovators Under 35 globally in 2024 and was previously recognised in Forbes 30 Under 30 in Energy for North America.
