You may already be amazed by diffusion models for generating images and videos—but did you know they can also help wildlife conservation🐘? We propose DiffOracle, combining diffusion models & game theory to stop poaching! Arxiv: arxiv.org/abs/2503.05730
Huge congrats to PHD student Sanket Shah @sunk8th on his successful PhD defense, "Decision-Focused Learning for the Masses With Applications to Public Health"! 🎉 What a fantastic way to celebrate our Teamcore group's 30th anniversary, with Sanket becoming our group's 40th PhD!




Delighted to announce a special upcoming #AI Seminar w/ @haifengxu0, taking place on MONDAY: 🗓️MAY 5 @ 10:00 am ET cse.engin.umich.edu/event/rethinki…
Paper: Deep RL + mixed integer programming to plan for restless bandits with combinatorial (NP-hard) constraints. with @brwilder @lyeskhalil @MilindTambe_AI Poster #416 on Friday @ 3–5:30pm x.com/lilyxu0/status…
Can we use RL to plan with combinatorial constraints? Our #ICLR2025 paper combines deep RL with mathematical programming to do so! We embed a trained Q-network into a mixed-integer program, into which we can specify NP-hard constraints. w/ @brwilder @lyeskhalil @MilindTambe_AI
If you are interested in advancing fundamental research in Multiagent Systems for applications in social impact, please see this position at Google Deepmind India: job-boards.greenhouse.io/deepmind/jobs/… We are seeking a highly motivated Research Scientist to join our team in Bengaluru.
How can optimization, machine learning, and causal inference address challenges of scarce housing? Find out more: 🗓️ Monday, 4/28 🕦 11:30 AM 📍 SEC 3.301/302/303 🎙️ @phebe_vayanos from @USC 🍽️ RSVP by April 24 for lunch: tinyurl.com/CRCSSeminarPhe…
Excited for @MilindTambe_AI's upcoming seminar on #AI for Social Impact (AI4SI), focused on leveraging foundation models and #LLMs to accelerate the AI4SI process: 🗓️ APRIL 11 | 9:30 am cse.engin.umich.edu/event/milind-t…

Tomorrow at Digital Health Equity: Local Empowerment, Global Alignment, session 3 will dive into the topic of the emerging landscape of digital health and AI in India. Introduction by @brianwahl. Keynote by @MilindTambe_AI. Panelists: Mayank Garg, @minimurthy1234, @ruchitnagar
Absolutely thrilled to be able host this alumni dinner for our Teamcore research group at #AAAI2025. It was (and it continues to be) an honor to have mentored so many professors! And it is fantastic to see everyone's progress in their careers.
