This paper introduces a new model for sequential strategic classification, where agents manipulate their responses to influence classifier decisions across multiple stages. The model accounts for agents' adaptive behaviors, including improvement actions and gaming actions, as they progress through increasingly difficult classification levels. Researchers analyzed optimal agent strategies under selective classifiers that can abstain from predictions, aiming to incentivize genuine effort over the long term. AI
