TITLE:
"Reliable AI-Augmented Decision-Making for Good"

ABSTRACT:
Sequential decision-making in dynamic, uncertain, and adversarial 
environments is a fundamental challenge in many applications such as 
online resource allocation, planning, and scheduling. While modern AI 
and ML algorithms offer transformative potential, their lack of 
reliability guarantees and possible misalignment with critical design 
goals—such as fairness—hinder their deployment in high-stakes societal 
domains. In this talk, I will present our recent progress in developing 
reliable AI-augmented decision-making algorithms. Our approach 
adaptively integrates reliable domain expertise to guide and regularize 
AI-driven decisions based on real-time conditions, exploiting the power 
of AI for performance improvement while providing reliability 
guarantees. I will conclude by highlighting applications of our design 
to problems of societal importance, including health-informed energy 
management for cleaner air and healthier communities.


------------------------------------
Sponsored by the RAISE at UCR Institute, the AI Seminar Series presents 
speakers working on cutting edge Foundational AI or apply AI in their 
research. The goal of these seminars is to inform the UCR community 
about current trends in AI research and promote collaborations between 
faculty in this emerging field. These seminars are open to interested 
faculty and graduate students. Please forward this email to other 
colleagues or graduate students in your lab that may be interested. 
After the seminar a discussion will follow for questions, open problems, 
ideas for possible collaborations etc.
