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.

Vision
To position Greece as a leading player in AI and Data Science
Mission
To build an AI Excellence Hub in Greece where the international research community can connect, groundbreaking ideas can thrive, and the next generation of scientists emerges, shaping a brighter future for Greece and the world
Welcome to ARCHIMEDES, a vibrant research hub connecting the global AI and Data Science research community fostering groundbreaking research in Greece and beyond. Its dedicated core team, comprising lead researchers, affiliated researchers, Post-Docs, PhDs and interns, is committed to advancing basic and applied research in Artificial Intelligence and its supporting disciplines, including Algorithms, Statistics, Learning Theory, and Game Theory organized around 8 core research areas. By collaborating with Greek and Foreign Universities and Research Institutes, ARCHIMEDES disseminates its research findings fostering knowledge exchange and providing enriching opportunities for students. Leveraging AI to address real-world challenges, ARCHIMEDES promotes innovation within the Greek ecosystem and extends its societal impact. Established in January 2022, as a research unit of the Athena Research Center with support from the Committee Greece 2021, ARCHIMEDES is funded for its first four years by the EU Recovery and Resilience Facility (RRF).
Archimedes and the Biomedical Research Foundation Share Latest Findings in AI and Medicine
4 March 2025
Archimedes and the Biomedical Research Foundation of the Academy of Athens successfully hosted a special collaborative session at the Panhellenic Working Group Seminars of the Hellenic Society of Cardiology. This session focused on innovative applications of artificial intelligence in medicine, with a particular emphasis on advancements in cardiology. Held on Friday, February 7, 2025, in Room MC2 of the Megaron Athens International Conference Centre, the event brought together leading experts to explore how artificial intelligence is transforming cardiovascular medicine.
Archimedes Reaches Milestone of 200 Publications
12 February 2025
Archimedes is proud to announce that its researchers have published over 200 scientific publications in top-tier conferences (NeurIPS, ICLR, ICML) and journals.Archimedes maintains a vibrant scientific community of over 130 researchers, including more than 60 senior researchers (faculty members from Greece and abroad), 12 postdoctoral fellows, and 55 PhD students, along with over 20 undergraduate interns from various disciplines.
Happy International Greek Language Day!
9 February 2025
Today, we celebrate the historical, cultural, and linguistic significance of the Greek language. While Standard Modern Greek often takes center stage, we at Archimedes - AI and Data Science Research Hub recognize the impressive diversity and great cultural significance of its numerous dialects. These dialects present both exciting opportunities and complex challenges for AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) because each one of them presents unique linguistic features and all of them are low resourced. That’s why we’re using cutting-edge AI to document, digitize, and analyze these invaluable linguistic treasures, ensuring their preservation and accessibility for generations to come.
Two Research Positions in Data Stream Management Systems & Big Data Management
7 February 2025
We are pleased to announce the availability of two research positions in data stream management systems and big data management, to be co-supervised by Assistant Professor Odysseas Papapetrou from the Eindhoven University of Technology (TU/e) in the Netherlands and Professor Minos Garofalakis from the Technical University of Crete in Greece.
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.
