Most of Vega was written by Jernej Barbič, during his doctoral studies at CMU, post-doctoral research at MIT, and faculty position at USC. Other code contributors include Fun Shing Sin, Daniel Schroeder, Andy Pierce, Yuyu Xu, Yijing Li, Hongyi Xu, Yili Zhao, Bohan Wang, Danyong Zhao, Koki Nagano, Christopher Twigg and Somya Sharma. Special thanks go to the authors of the implemented papers who performed the difficult research to invent these methods. We would like to thank the United States National Science Foundation, James H. Zumberge Research and Innovation Fund at the University of Southern California, Link Foundation, Sloan Foundation, Okawa Foundation, USC Annenberg Foundation, and the Singapore-MIT GAMBIT Game Lab, for funding this research.
