6-17 December 2010, Logic Summer School, Canberra, Australia
As computers become more powerful, their ability to perform complicated reasoning tasks increases. In order to harness their power, we need to understand the reasoning they can do, and how they may do it more efficiently. This understanding begins with logic.
The Logic Summer School comprises a blend of practical ... (Read the rest of the entry >>)

Abstract. The decision-theoretic approach to game theory requires players to have beliefs about all relevant uncertainty, including
beliefs about other players’ beliefs, and so on, which naturally leads to infinite hierarchies of beliefs. However, players may ... (Read the rest of the entry >>)
