Featuring:

Assistant Professor

Yale University

Moderator:

David E. Weinstein, Director, CJEB; Carl S. Shoup Professor of the Japanese Economy, Columbia University

What You’ll Learn:

Today’s society increasingly resorts to data and algorithms for key decision-making. In this talk, Professor Narita will give an overview of a spectrum of attempts to design and deploy social decision-making algorithms. The topics include:

1) Professor Narita's startup Hanjuku-kaso, Inc.’s business applications at major Japanese corporations, including SONY, Yahoo Japan, CyberAgent, and ZOZO

2) “Micro” policy problems, such as the evaluation and design of education and healthcare policies

3) “Macro” policy problems, such as envisioning data-driven democracy and capitalism

About the Speaker:

Yusuke Narita is an Assistant Professor at Yale University and the founder of startup Hanjuku-kaso, Inc. His research centers around the design of decision-making algorithms in policy and business, with a particular interest in education policy. His work uses a variety of methods, such as causal inference, machine learning, economic theory, and structural econometric modeling. His work has been published in journals including Econometrica, AAAI (Association for the Advancement of Artificial Intelligence), American Economic Review, Journal of Economic Theory, Management Science, NeurIPS (Neural Information Processing Systems), and PNAS. His company also collaborates with several Japanese corporations and local governments. He obtained a BA from the University of Tokyo, a Ph.D. from MIT, and was formally a visiting assistant professor at Stanford University and a visiting associate professor at Hitotsubashi University. He is also a visiting scholar at the University of Tokyo and RIETI in Japan.
