Bayesian Persuasion in Sequential Decision-Making
Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2022 We study a dynamic model of Bayesian persuasion in sequential decision-making settings. An informed principal observes an external parameter of the world and advises an uninformed agent about actions to take over time. The agent takes actions in each time step based on the current state, the principal's advice/signal, and beliefs about the external ...
