Chaos, Extremism and Optimism: Volume Analysis of Learning in Games

Abstract

We perform volume analysis of Multiplicative Weights Updates (MWU) and its optimistic variant (OMWU) in zero-sum as well as coordination games. Our analysis provides new insights into these game/dynamical systems, which seem hard to achieve via the classical techniques within Computer Science and Machine Learning.
