Non-Linear Strategic Classification Made Practical

arXiv:2606. 28204v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Algorithmic developments in Strategic Classification have been mostly limited to linear classifiers in settings where the best response has a closed-form solution or can be easily approximated.

Coupled Training with Privileged Information and Unlabeled Data

arXiv:2605. 23268v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In many prediction problems, we have extra information during training (for example, measurements that are expensive or slow to collect) that will not be available when the model is deployed.

When Tabular Foundation Models Meet Strategic Tabular Data: A Prior Alignment Approach

arXiv:2605. 19662v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Tabular foundation models based on pretrained prior-data fitted networks~(PFNs) have shown strong generalization on diverse tabular tasks, but they are typically designed for \emph{non-strategic} settings where data distributions are independent of deployed classifiers.
