arXiv:2606.06744v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Two-sided matching markets often involve information that unfolds over time through interviews, repeated interaction, learning, and separation. Existing matching models typically reduce this process to immediate sub-Gaussian feedback about fixed preferences, missing settings where payoff-relevant information is revealed gradually and changes future matching decisions. We introduce a framework with temporally extended feedback, that formulates two-sided matching as a partially observable Markov game with costly pre-match screening, noisy post-matc
This paper introduces a timely framework to address real-world complexities in matching markets where AI and autonomous systems are increasingly being deployed, moving beyond simplified assumptions common in existing models.
A strategic reader should care because this research directly impacts the design and efficiency of AI agents operating in dynamic, partially observable environments, particularly those involving nuanced human-AI or AI-AI interactions.
Traditional matching models, which assume immediate feedback and fixed preferences, are rendered less relevant as this new framework incorporates temporally extended feedback and evolving information, leading to more sophisticated decision-making algorithms.
