DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Game theory is a field at th e border between Psychology and Mathematics\, where the players in questio n are not necessarily opposed to each other\, but have the choice to coope rate. It applies to situations where several people have to make decisions \, and the outcome will also depend on the decisions made by everyone else . Well\, as is often the case in real life. These situations were theorize d namely by American mathematician John Nash\, whom you might remember fro m Hollywood movie «A beautiful mind» (one where Russell Crowe is not a g ladiator). Cooperate or betray? To forgive or to punish? Which is better f or you? Come and figure it out. It’s only up to you to decide. Or is it? \n\nImage by DilokaStudio on Freepik[/vc_column_text][vc_empty_space][vc_ row_inner][vc_column_inner width="1/6"][vc_single_image image="18992" img_ size="full" style="vc_box_circle_2" css_animation="fadeInDown"][/vc_column _inner][vc_column_inner width="5/6"][vc_column_text]\nTom Lenaerts\nTom Le naerts is Professor at the Université Libre de Bruxelles where he is co-h eading the Machine Learning Group.
