The Optimal Sample Complexity of Linear Contracts 事件

The Optimal Sample Complexity of Linear Contracts arXiv:2601.01496v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In this paper, we settle the problem of learning optimal linear contracts from data in the offline setting, where agent types are drawn from an unknown distribution and the principal's goal is to design a contract that maximizes her expected utility. Specifically, our analysis shows that the simple Empirical Utility Maximization (EUM) algorithm yields an $\varepsilon$-approximation of the
