TITLE: Sequential Choice and Self-Reinforcing Rankings

ABSTRACT: People’s behavior is informed and influenced by other people’s choices. In many online technologies, for instance, aggregate information about the choices of other individuals is encoded in the form of rankings. Such rankings, in turn, have a direct impact on people’s future choices. What are the long-term dynamics of these rankings, and do the dynamics depend on specific assumptions about people’s behavior? In this paper, we propose a general framework for modeling the dynamics in settings where information about peoples’ past choices is recorded as a ranking and influences future choices. We find a general condition for convergence, show that it is satisfied by many important models in economics and beyond, and characterize the possible limits in terms of the choice probabilities.


SHORT BIO: Pantelis Pipergias Analytis (https://www.sdu.dk/en/forskning/forskningsenheder/samf/sod/simple-employee-list-sod/group-members/pantelis-analytis ) is an Associate Professor at the Department of Business and Management and senior fellow at the Danish Institute of Advanced Study. In his research, Pantelis develops mathematical and computational models of individual and collective behavior and uses experiments, big-data and large-scale simulations to assess their descriptive and prescriptive value. Pantelis has studied economics at the University of Athens, cognitive science at EHESS in Paris and received his PhD in psychology from Humboldt University in Berlin. Before joining the University of Southern Denmark, he worked as a predoctoral researcher at the Max Planck Institute for Human Development in Berlin and as a postdoctoral researcher at the Computer and Information Science departments at Cornell University in Ithaca.

Archimedes Postdoc will Conduct a Tutorial at the International Conference on Microelectronics 2025

Vassilis Alimisis, a postdoctoral researcher at Archimedes, Athena Research Center, Greece, will deliver a tutorial on "Low-Power Analog Hardware Classifier Architecture for ML Applications: From A to Z" at the International Conference on Microelectronics (ICM 2025), taking place on 14-17 December, 2025, in Cairo, Egypt.Abstract: This tutorial provides a comprehensive introduction to the design and implementation of low-power analog hardware classifiers tailored for machine learning (ML) applications, with a focus on energy-constrained environments such as edge devices and biomedical wearables. With the growing need for fast, efficient, and real-time data processing, analog computing has re-emerged as a promising solution that enables in-memory computation and significantly reduces power consumption compared to conventional digital processors.

Archimedes Flagship Project in Cardiology and AI is Featured in the News!

Archimedes Flagship Project in Cardiology and AI is Featured in the News!

Archimedes Research Unit of the Athena Research Center, Greece, is featured in a recent article in Dnews. This article is about an Archimedes flagship project in cardiology and AI that aims to use "two-dimensional echocardiographic data to develop deep learning tools and improve the treatment of heart problems."This project will be developed in collaboration with the Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center and the Archimedes Research Unit of the Athena Research Center, Greece. The Onassis Cardiac Surgery Center will contribute cardiac data and medical expertise, while the Archimedes Research Unit will set up a team of researchers who will develop advanced techniques and AI models that will address specific cardiological issues.

 
 

The project “ARCHIMEDES Unit: Research in Artificial Intelligence, Data Science and Algorithms” with code OPS 5154714 is implemented by the National Recovery and Resilience Plan “Greece 2.0” and is funded by the European Union – NextGenerationEU.
