Multi-Armed Bandits Convergence Acceleration Using Cluster Normalizations

open access: yesIEEE Access
Recommender systems usually operate in non-stationary environments, so the standard techniques used to create recommendations begin to degrade after some use.

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.

Highly Configurable Evolutionary Multi‐Objective Optimisation and Application in UAV Path Planning

open access: yesCAAI Transactions on Intelligence Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multi‐objective optimisation is crucial in engineering and real‐world decision‐making. Although traditional decomposition‐based approaches such as MOEA/D yield reasonable results, they depend heavily on expert knowledge. Existing MetaBBO approaches partially alleviate this reliance, however, they offer limited configurability and lack real ...

On-Line Adaptation of Exploration in the One-Armed Bandit with Covariates Problem

open access: yes, 2010
Many sequential decision making problems require an agent to balance exploration and exploitation to maximise long-term reward. Existing policies that address this tradeoff typically have parameters that are set a priori to control the amount of ...

Adaptive Noise Exploration for Neural Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits

open access: yesAlgorithms
In contextual multi-armed bandits, the relationship between contextual information and rewards is typically unknown, complicating the trade-off between exploration and exploitation.

Obligation, Exemption and Remission: The Multi‐Layered Functioning of the Poll Tax (Cizye) in Ottoman Governance during the Long Eighteenth Century

open access: yesHistory, EarlyView.
Abstract This article examines the poll tax (Ottoman Turkish cizye; Arabic jizya) levied on non‐Muslim subjects of the Ottoman Empire, not as a fixed, one‐dimensional tax item within the Ottoman fiscal system but as a multi‐layered administrative instrument organized around obligation, exemption and remission.

Optimizing the ε Parameter in ε-Greedy Strategy for Multi-Armed Bandits [PDF]

open access: yesITM Web of Conferences
With the widespread adoption of the internet, online advertising has grown exponentially. To enhance ad recommendation efficiency, various Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) algorithms have been deployed. Among these, the Thompson ε-Greedy algorithm integrates the

Algorithmic Monoculture and Its Critics

open access: yesPhilosophical Perspectives, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Algorithmic decision‐making is replacing idiosyncratic human judgment in domains such as hiring, lending, and criminal justice. This shift promises increased consistency, but many scholars worry that it can go too far. They warn of the dangers of algorithmic monoculture, in which all decisions across a domain are made using a single algorithm.

Skyline Identification in Multi-Arm Bandits

open access: yes2018 IEEE International Symposium on Information Theory (ISIT), 2018
We introduce a variant of the classical PAC multi-armed bandit problem. There is an ordered set of $n$ arms $A[1],\dots,A[n]$, each with some stochastic reward drawn from some unknown bounded distribution. The goal is to identify the $skyline$ of the set $A$, consisting of all arms $A[i]$ such that $A[i]$ has larger expected reward than all lower ...

Budget-limited multi-armed bandits [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Decision making under uncertainty is one of the most important challenges within the research field of artificial intelligence, as they present many everyday situations that agents have to face.
