ACT@UCR Seminar: Open Games: the Long Road to Practical Applications - Jules Hedges

I will talk about open games, and the closely related concepts of lenses/optics and open learners. My goal is to report on the successes and failures of an ongoing effort to try to realise the often-claimed benefits of categories and compositionality in actual practice. I will introduce what little theory is needed along the way. Here are some things I plan to talk about: — Lenses as an abstraction of the chain rule — Comb diagrams — Surprising applications of open games: Bayesian inference, value function iteration — The state of tool support — Open games in their natural habitat: microeconomics — Sociological aspects of working with economics slides: https://johncarlosbaez.wordpress.com/... This talk on 2020 April 15 is part of the Applied Category Theory at U. C. Riverside Seminar: https://sites.google.com/ucr.edu/actucr/
