Workshop on Correlated Information Change


Welcome


Welcome to the Workshop on

Correlated Information Change
 

which takes place on 24-26 November 2014 in Amsterdam.

 

Via this workshop, we are creating a forum to present new developments, exchange ideas, explore and establish new connections between different areas that have already developed techniques to model correlated information change in a multi-agent context. The types of correlated information change that we are interested in, covers a list of phenomena studied in a number of areas such as: Game Theory, Logic, Belief Revision Theory, Formal Epistemology, Social Science, Formal Learning Theory, AI (Multi-agent Systems) and the Foundations of Quantum Physics. 

Topics of focus will include, but are not limited to the study of formal models for:

  • Correlated belief change;
  • Classical versus non-classical correlations;
  • Communication and observation in social scenario's;
  • Rational interaction, decision-making and planning in a multi-agent setting;
  • Social-informational phenomena such as pluralistic ignorance, informational cascades, group polarization etc.


This workshop is the third event which follows after the workshop on "Social Dynamics of information Change"( http://www.illc.uva.nl/lgc/seminar/?p=2106) held in 2013, and the kick-off workshop on "Belief Dynamics in Social Context" (http://www.ninagierasimczuk.com/logicic/kickoff/) held in 2012.

 

Prior to this workshop, there will be a satellite event on 20 and 21 November  


 Qualitative and Quantitative Methods in Formal Epistemology

on November 20-21.
