Efficient Resource Allocation with Fairness Constraints in Restless Multi-Armed Bandits
CoRR, 2022 Restless Multi-Armed Bandits (RMAB) is an apt model to represent decision-making problems in public health interventions (e.g., tuberculosis, maternal, and child care), anti-poaching planning, sensor monitoring, personalized recommendations and many more.

A generalised gittins index for a class of multi-armed bandits with general resource requirements [PDF]
, 2009 We generalise classical multiarmed bandits to allow for the distribution of a (fixed amount of a) divisible resource among the constituent bandits at each decision point.

Interactive Restless Multi-armed Bandit Game and Swarm Intelligence Effect [PDF]
New Generation Computing, 2015 We obtain the conditions for the emergence of the swarm intelligence effect in an interactive game of restless multi-armed bandit (rMAB). A player competes with multiple agents. Each bandit has a payoff that changes with a probability $p_{c}$ per round.

Efficient Algorithms for Finite Horizon and Streaming Restless Multi-Armed Bandit Problems [PDF]
International Joint Conference on Autonomous Agents and Multiagent Systems, 2022 We propose Streaming Bandits, a Restless Multi-Armed Bandit (RMAB) framework in which heterogeneous arms may arrive and leave the system after staying on for a finite lifetime. Streaming Bandits naturally capture the health-intervention planning problem, where health workers must manage the health outcomes of a patient cohort while new patients join ...

Indexability and index heuristics for a simple class of inventory routing problems [PDF]
, 2009 We utilise and develop Whittle's restless bandit formulation to analyse a simple class of inventory routing problems with direct deliveries. These routing problems arise from the practice of vendor-managed inventory replenishment and concern the optimal ...

Index policies for the admission control and routing of impatient customers to heterogeneous service stations [PDF]
, 2009 We propose a general Markovian model for the optimal control of admissions and subsequent routing of customers for service provided by a collection of heterogeneous stations. Queue-length information is available to inform all decisions.

Networked Restless Bandits with Positive Externalities
, 2022 Restless multi-armed bandits are often used to model budget-constrained resource allocation tasks where receipt of the resource is associated with an increased probability of a favorable state transition.
