    Feedback between machine learning models and the environment in which they are deployed leads to a host of challenges, from distribution shift to bias to polarization. This graduate level course will introduce theoretical foundations for studying such phenomena. We will cover the frameworks of control theory, reinforcement learning, and online/adaptive learning. Then, we will turn to algorithms for ensuring properties like stability, robustness, safety, and fairness. We will also discuss the social and ethical concerns which motivate these algorithms and properties. Paper discussions and a research project are major parts of the course. Restricted to Ithaca campus graduate students only. Undergraduate and MEng students must add themselves to the waitlist during add/drop. This course is not available to Cornell Tech students.
