Multi-Armed Bandits and Their Classical Algorithms: Strengths and Limitations [PDF]

open access: yesITM Web of Conferences
Multi-armed Bandits (MAB), which is the short form for multi- armed bandit, is playing a significant role in varied spaces including online advertising, recommendation system, clinical trials and medical decision- making and even in 5G. The model aims to

COM-MABs: From Users' Feedback to Recommendation

open access: yesProceedings of the International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference, 2022
Recently, the COMbinatorial Multi-Armed Bandits (COM-MAB) problem has arisen as an active research field. In systems interacting with humans, those reinforcement learning approaches use a feedback strategy as their reward function.

Multi-armed Bandits with Compensation

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
We propose and study the known-compensation multi-arm bandit (KCMAB) problem, where a system controller offers a set of arms to many short-term players for $T$ steps. In each step, one short-term player arrives to the system. Upon arrival, the player aims to select an arm with the current best average reward and receives a stochastic reward associated ...

Rested and Restless Bandits With Constrained Arms and Hidden States: Applications in Social Networks and 5G Networks

open access: yesIEEE Access, 2018
The problem of rested and restless multi-armed bandits with constrained availability (RMAB-CA) of arms is considered. The states of arms evolve in Markovian manner and the exact states are hidden from the decision maker. First, some structural results on

Multi-armed bandits in metric spaces [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the fortieth annual ACM symposium on Theory of computing, 2008
In a multi-armed bandit problem, an online algorithm chooses from a set of strategies in a sequence of trials so as to maximize the total payoff of the chosen strategies. While the performance of bandit algorithms with a small finite strategy set is quite well understood, bandit problems with large strategy sets are still a topic of very active ...

Regional Multi-Armed Bandits

open access: yesCoRR, 2018
We consider a variant of the classic multi-armed bandit problem where the expected reward of each arm is a function of an unknown parameter. The arms are divided into different groups, each of which has a common parameter. Therefore, when the player selects an arm at each time slot, information of other arms in the same group is also revealed.

Best Agent Identification for General Game Playing

open access: yesIEEE Access
We present an efficient and generalised procedure to accurately identify the best (or near best) performing algorithm for each sub-task in a multi-problem domain.

Context-aware Multi-stakeholder Recommender Systems

open access: yesProceedings of the International Florida Artificial Intelligence Research Society Conference, 2022
Traditional recommender systems help users find the most relevant products or services to match their needs and preferences. However, they overlook the preferences of other sides of the market (aka stakeholders) involved in the system.

Multi-armed Bandits with Cost Subsidy

open access: yesCoRR, 2020
In this paper, we consider a novel variant of the multi-armed bandit (MAB) problem, MAB with cost subsidy, which models many real-life applications where the learning agent has to pay to select an arm and is concerned about optimizing cumulative costs and rewards. We present two applications, intelligent SMS routing problem and ad audience optimization
