Mary Monroe

I am a second-year PhD student in the CS theory group at the University of Colorado, Boulder, co-advised by Bo Waggoner and Rafael Frongillo. I hold undergraduate degrees in Computer Science and Mathematics from the University of Maryland, and before grad school I was a software engineer for Amazon Web Services.

My research interests lie at the intersection of algorithmic game theory and theoretical machine learning, especially related to the aggregation of preferences/information and the incentive structures that arise. In particular, I am studying how to make collective decisions by combining preferences and predictions. I am also thinking about how people strategize in different types of forecasting competitions.
