What We Do

We are a student-run organization at Boston University Computing and Data Science dedicated to fostering knowledge sharing and academic growth within the community.

Our Mission?

Create a space where students can explore, present, and discuss the research topics they're passionate about in a supportive, collaborative environment.

Every Friday from 12:00 to 1:00 PM in CDS 1646, students present on research that excites them—whether it's their current work, an inspiring paper they've discovered, or a hands-on workshop in their area of expertise. From artificial intelligence to biological sciences, our seminars cover the full breadth of computer and data science.

Interdependent Bilateral Trade: Information vs Approximation

by Thodoris Tsilivis

This talk will introduce the area of mechanism design, and then focus on the problem of bilateral trade. Welfare maximization in bilateral trade has been extensively studied in recent years, primarily for the private values case. This talks will focus on welfare maximization in bilateral trade with interdependent values. Designing mechanisms for interdependent settings is much more challenging because the values of the players depend on the private information of others, requiring complex belief updates and strategic inference. Based on Interdependent Bilateral Trade: Information vs Approximation (EC25).
