DESCRIPTION:[LLMs\, Optimization\, and Game Theory]\n\nSpecial Presentation
  by Dr. Samson Lasaulce (Khalifa U.\, UAE)\n\nHosted by the Future Network
 s Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning (AIML) Working Group\n\nDate/
 Time: Thursday\, 17 April 2025 @ 12:00 UTC\n\nTopic:\n\nLarge Language Mod
 els (LLMs)\, Optimization\, and Game Theory\n\nAbstract:\n\nIn this talk\,
  we will explore the interplay between large language models (LLMs) and op
 timization. After introducing a use case (consumption power scheduling) fo
 r which studying this interplay is fully relevant\, we will survey the mai
 n approaches in this area\, which include pure LLM-based approaches (e.g.\
 , to deal with math word problems) and combined approaches. Both limitatio
 ns and promising solutions will be discussed. Application to radio resourc
 e management and to telecommunications more generally will also be address
 ed. In the last part of the talk\, connections between LLMs and game theor
 y will be discussed.\n\nSpeaker:\n\n[]\nSamson Lasaulce is a Chief Researc
 h Scientist with Khalifa University. He is the holder of the TII 6G Chair 
 on Native AI. He is also a CNRS Director of Research with CRAN at Nancy. H
 e has been the holder of the RTE Chair on the "Digital Transformation of E
 lectricity Networks". He has also been a part-time Professor with the Depa
 rtment of Physics at École Polytechnique (France). Before joining CNRS he
  has been working for five years in private R&D companies (Motorola Labs a
 nd Orange Labs). His current research interests lie in distributed network
 s with a focus on optimization\, game theory\, and machine learning. The m
 ain application areas of his research are wireless networks\, energy netwo
 rks\, social networks\, and now climate change. Dr Lasaulce has been servi
 ng as an editor for several international journals such as the IEEE Transa
 ctions. He is the co-author of more than 200 publications\, including a do
 zen of patents and several books such as "Game Theory and Learning for Wir
 eless Networks: Fundamentals and Applications". Dr Lasaulce is also the re
 cipient of several awards such as the Blondel Medal award from the SEE Fre
