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

IEEE 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

User Association in the Presence of Jamming in Wireless Networks Using the Whittle Index

IEEE Open Journal of Vehicular Technology
In wireless networks, algorithms for user association, i.e., the task of choosing the base station (BS) that every arriving user should join, significantly impact the network performance. A wireless network with multiple BSs, operating on non-overlapping

Constrained Restless Bandits for Dynamic Scheduling in Cyber-Physical Systems

IEEE Access
This paper develops a sequential decision-making framework called constrained restless multi-armed bandits (CRMABs) to model problems of resource allocation under uncertainty and dynamic availability constraints.

Nanomaterial Strategies for Pulmonary Delivery of Immunotherapeutics in Lung Cancer Treatment

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Inhalable immunotherapeutic nanomedicines enable organ‐selective immune modulation by overcoming pulmonary delivery barriers and concentrating therapy within lung tumors. This Review defines how nanomaterial properties govern airway deposition, retention, cellular partitioning, and immune activation across vaccines, checkpoint blockade, STING agonists,

Optimistic Whittle Index Policy: Online Learning for Restless Bandits

Proceedings of the AAAI Conference on Artificial Intelligence, 2023
Restless multi-armed bandits (RMABs) extend multi-armed bandits to allow for stateful arms, where the state of each arm evolves restlessly with different transitions depending on whether that arm is pulled. Solving RMABs requires information on transition dynamics, which are often unknown upfront.

Neuropeptide Y—Graphene Oxide Complexes Inhibit Amygdala NPY‐Receptor Expressing Glutamatergic Pathways and Selectively Remove Aversive Memory In Vivo

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
A graphene oxide nanocarrier presents neuropeptide Y specifically to NPY receptor‐expressing pathways in the amygdala, whose activation selectively suppresses aversive memory formation, without modulating anxiety responses. This circuit‐restricted drug release strategy may impact future design of neuropsychiatric therapies with limited off‐target ...

Becoming resilient: Community‐driven change and the civic capacity index

American Journal of Community Psychology, EarlyView.
Abstract One of the principal features of successful community governance is that it is collaborative and thus dependent on a community's ability to work together. However, there are no valid, comprehensive means to assess a community's capacity to respond to civic challenges in collaborative ways, and that are predictive of community resilience and ...

Fair and Efficient Scheduling for Sensor Networks via Online Whittle Index Policy

IEEE Access
We study the problem of intelligent polling in wireless sensor networks, where transmissions should occur only when updates are meaningful. To prioritise informative updates, we formulate the polling problem using the Age of Incorrect Information (AoII ...
