Abstract: We revisit the celebrated Bayesian persuasion setting and examine how well the Sender can perform when ignorant of the Receiver's utility. Taking an adversarial approach, we measure the signaling scheme performance via (additive) regret over a single persuasion instance. We focus on Receiver with two actions: adoption and rejection, assuming that Sender aims to persuade Receiver to adopt.
