<p>I was reading this neat piece by Fudenberg <a href="http://fudenberg.fas.harvard.edu/predictive%20game%20theory.pdf">http://fudenberg.fas.harvard.edu/predictive%20game%20theory.pdf</a> on Predictive Game Theory. He argues correctly that most traditional work in Game Theory is not suited for prediction in real world set-ups. </p>

<p>Do you know any work that has advanced the theory or empirics of  predictive game theory? </p>

<p>I am aware of some recent work of partial identification for games but I am more interested in learning in games and off-equilibrium dynamics. </p>

I was reading this neat piece by Fudenberg <http://fudenberg.fas.harvard.edu/predictive%20game%20theory.pdf> on Predictive Game Theory. He argues correctly that most traditional work in Game Theory is not suited for prediction in real world set-ups.

Do you know any work that has advanced the theory or empirics of predictive game theory?

I am aware of some recent work of partial identification for games but I am more interested in learning in games and off-equilibrium dynamics.
