Contextual bandits to increase user prediction accuracy in movie recommendation system [PDF]
Cold-start problems are inevitable phenomena where recommendation systems fail to accurately predict users’ favour and cause the loss of new users. The typical Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) models are widely adopted as recommendation systems to solve cold ...

Distributed Flow Scheduling in an Unknown Environment [PDF]
Flow scheduling tends to be one of the oldest and most stubborn problems in networking. It becomes more crucial in the next generation network, due to fast changing link states and tremendous cost to explore the global structure.

On the Whittle Index for Restless Multi-armed Hidden Markov Bandits
We consider a restless multi-armed bandit in which each arm can be in one of two states. When an arm is sampled, the state of the arm is not available to the sampler.

Absolute, average‐based, and rank‐based aspirations
Abstract Research Summary A key strategic challenge is balancing exploration and exploitation. When individuals' exploration activity is guided by problemistic search, should managers encourage high aspirations? Past work has shown that optimal aspiration (the aspiration level that leads to the highest level of performance in the long run) is lower in ...

We survey the literature on multi-armed bandit models and their applications in economics. The multi-armed bandit problem is a statistical decision model of an agent trying to optimize his decisions while improving his information at the same time.

Discrete Choice Multi-Armed Bandits
This paper establishes a connection between a category of discrete choice models and the realms of online learning and multiarmed bandit algorithms. Our contributions can be summarized in two key aspects. Firstly, we furnish sublinear regret bounds for a comprehensive family of algorithms, encompassing the Exp3 algorithm as a particular case. Secondly,

Armed Conflict and Livestock Species Choices in Northern Nigeria: Evidence From Panel Data Analysis
ABSTRACT This study examines how armed conflict influences livestock species choices among households in northern Nigeria, a region with livelihoods largely dependent on livestock keeping. Using household panel survey data with global georeferenced conflict data, this study observes significant trends in livestock ownership patterns from 2010 to 2016 ...

Fairness in Federated Learning: Trends, Challenges, and Opportunities
This survey delves into the intricate issues pertinent to fairness in federated learning , where various biasing factors can skew model performance. By systematically analyzing fairness‐aware strategies, evaluation metrics, and future directions, this work identifies pivotal research gaps in existing approaches and sheds light on both challenges and ...
