In reinforcement learning the Q-values summarize the expected future rewards that the agent will attain. However, they cannot capture the epistemic uncertainty about those rewards. In this work we derive a new Bellman operator with…

Federated learning is a setting where agents, each with access to their own data source, combine models from local data to create a global model. If agents are drawing their data from different distributions, though, federated learning…
We consider continuous-time heterogeneous agent models with recursive utility (Epstein-Zin utility) cast as mean field games, in which agents prefer late resolution of uncertainty. The model leads to a system coupling a pair of…
