TITLE : Finding the top-k elements with noisy queries
ABSTRACT :
Suppose you're tasked to select the best 100 papers out of 300 for a conference. You have access to reviewers, but each review might be noisy/incorrect with constant probability. What’s the best way to assign reviewers? Do multiple rounds of review help? The talk is based on the SODA paper https://epubs.siam.org/doi/10.1137/1.9781611975994.131
