Ariel Procaccia

I am an Assistant Professor in the Computer Science Department at Carnegie Mellon University.

Before coming to CMU I spent two years as a postdoc in Harvard's Center for Research on Computation and Society, and a year as a postdoc at Microsoft Israel R&D Center. I received my Ph.D. in Computer Science from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem.

My two main (closely related) fields are:
  • Computational game theory and mechanism design
  • Computational social choice
I am broadly interested though in many areas of artificial intelligence and theory of CS, including multiagent systems, approximation algorithms, machine learning, decision making under uncertainty, and human computation.
