arXiv:2606. 00835v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Network routers that enforce Quality-of-Service (QoS) guarantees must decide, at every clock cycle, which expiring packet of information to transmit, even when the value of the packet is unknown until it is processed.
arXiv:2606. 09668v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Contextual queueing bandits provide a framework for learning to schedule heterogeneous jobs under unknown context-dependent service rates.
arXiv:2609.13547v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study switching regret in adversarial multi-armed bandits, where the learner competes with an arm sequence that changes at most $S$ times. When $S$...
arXiv:2607. 29460v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Heavy-tailed distributions arise naturally in sequential decision-making problems such as financial investment, online advertising, and network management, where rare but extreme outcomes can dominate performance.
arXiv:2606. 27448v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper studies the problem of regret minimization in Markovian bandits with \emph{non-observable states} and possibly \emph{constrained} decision epochs.
arXiv:2112. 06362v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We consider the problem of scheduling in multi-class, parallel-server queuing systems with uncertain rewards from job-server assignments.
arXiv:2609.37932v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Systems operating in dynamic environments require timely updates to sustain performance. For resource-intensive systems such as machine learning models...
arXiv:2606. 11711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online learning with delayed feedback typically assumes that the learner can track all pending rounds until their feedback arrives.
arXiv:2605.20854v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We provide the first regret analysis of ReMax in stochastic multi-armed bandits. Originally introduced for reinforcement learning, ReMax is motivat...
arXiv:2608. 12231v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study adversarial combinatorial bandits with $m$-set actions, where at each round the learner selects $m$ out of $d$ items and observes only the aggregate loss of the selected items.
arXiv:2602. 16965v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the decentralized multi-player stochastic bandit problem over a continuous, Lipschitz-structured action space where hard collisions yield zero reward.
arXiv:2602. 06404v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study distributed adversarial bandits, where $N$ agents cooperate to minimize the global average loss while observing only their own local losses.
The paper introduces Online Hyperparameter Optimization (OHPO), framing it as an infinitely many‑armed bandit problem over mixed and conditional search spaces. It proposes the IMABO framework, which couples any bandit policy with any oracle for proposing new configurations, and presents IMOSS—a restart‑free anytime policy with provable regret bounds. Experiments show that IMABO, combined with practical oracles such as TPE, an incumbent‑mutation oracle, and a pretrained tabular foundation model, outperforms random search across a range of settings from classical ML models to LLM‑based agents.
