International Workshop on Experimental Economics and Machine Learning (EEML)
In conjunction with ICFCA 2012 (6 - 10 May 2012, Leuven, Belgium) In Experimental Economics, laboratory and field experiments are conducted on subjects in order to improve theoretical knowledge about human behavior in interactions. Although paying different amounts of money restricts the preferences of the subjects in experiments, the exclusive application of analytical game theory does not suffice to explain the recorded data. It exacts the development and evaluation of more sophisticated models. In some experiments, human subjects are involved into an interaction with automated agents and these agents are used for simulating human interactions. The more data is used for the evaluation, the more of statistical significance can be achieved. Since huge amounts of behavioral data are required to be scanned for regularities and automated agents are required to simulate and to intervene human interactions, Machine Learning is the tool of choice for the research in Experimental Economics. Moreover modern economics extensively involves network structures, which can be modeled as graphs or more complicated relational structures. Therefore relational machine learning is a potentially useful technique for the purposes of analyzing these new types of economic data. We hope that this workshop associated with the conference on Formal Concept Analysis and two related workshops will help to gather researchers from data analysis and economic communities and activate the power of algebraic and relational machine learning tools to gain the beneficial results. Subject coverage: • Economical Applications of Machine Learning • Experimental Economics and Complex Networks • Machine Learning for Social Sciences • Human Behavior Modeling and Game Theory • Economical Innovations and Data Mining • Knowledge Discovery in Economics Domain • Innovative applications of FCA in Economics • Relational Machine Learning and Graph Mining • Behavioral game theory Workshop chairs Rustam Tagiew, Mining Academy of Freiberg, Germany Dmitry Ignatov, University - Higher School of Economics, Russia Alexey Neznanov, University - Higher School of Economics, Russia Jonas Poelmans, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium Program committee (to be extended and confirmed) Guido Dedene, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium Stijn Viaene, Vlerick Leuven Management School, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven, Belgium Simon Polovina, Sheffield Hallam University, United Kingdom Simon Andrews, Sheffield Hallam University, United Kingdom Sergei Obiedkov, University - Higher School of Economics, Russia Paul Elzinga, Katholieke Universiteit Leuven Belgium, Amsterdam-Amstelland police Netherlands Elvina Baiburina, University - Higher School of Economics, Russia Xenia Naidenova, Military Medical Academy, Russia Important dates Submission deadline: February 1, 2012 Revisions: March 13, 2012 Camera-ready copy: April 1, 2012 Proceedings: All accepted papers will be included in the workshop’s proceedings to be published by Katholieke Universiteit Leuven in a volume with ISBN.
