Seeking collaborators on regime aware AI for risk pricing and decision systems

  • 1.  Seeking collaborators on regime aware AI for risk pricing and decision systems

    Posted 2 days ago

    Hello INFORMS community,
    I am Mujahid Merchant, an independent researcher working at the intersection of AI, finance, and decision systems. My current focus is regime aware modeling for risk pricing and trust, methods that remain reliable when macro conditions, climate stress, or market structure shifts change the underlying data.

    I am interested in connecting with researchers and practitioners working on any of the following:

    • Robust optimization and decision making under distribution shift

    • Stress testing, scenario design, and model risk management for ML

    • Incentives and market design topics, including DeFi and hybrid markets

    • Credit risk, securitization, and pricing under macro and climate shocks

    • Human plus AI decision workflows and governance

    If you are open to collaboration, I would love to exchange a short research summary, discuss possible joint projects, or contribute to replication and evaluation work for papers in progress.

    Hello Mujahid,

    Thanks for sharing. I work on deep reinforcement learning for decision making under uncertainty.

    I am interested; let's connect.
