arXiv:2608. 10045v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The problem of learning from pairwise comparisons has been widely studied across many domains such as recommendation systems, social choice, and more recently, fine-tuning large language models.
arXiv:2602. 01658v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Bandit algorithms have recently emerged as a powerful tool for evaluating machine learning models, including generative image models and large language models, by efficiently identifying top-performing candidates without exhaustive comparisons.
arXiv:2510. 19119v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In networked environments, it is common for users to share recommendations about content, products, services, and possible courses of action.
arXiv:2606. 14929v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern recommendation systems increasingly rely on dynamically routing diverse queries to multiple embedding models.
arXiv:2004. 06321v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the sequential batch learning problem in linear contextual bandits with finite action sets, where the decision maker is constrained to split incoming individuals into (at most) a fixed number of batches and can only observe outcomes for the individuals within a batch at the batch's end.
arXiv:2605. 07304v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Bandit algorithms solve diverse sequential decision-making problems, but are often too sample-inefficient for from-scratch personalization.
arXiv:2607. 20471v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Personalization, the act of varying a message to induce action from a specific receiver while keeping sender, channel, and time fixed, has a long tradition in psychology and marketing as a two-party problem in which sender and receiver have independent objectives.
arXiv:2606. 17489v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are increasingly deployed in edge-cloud inference systems to handle diverse user tasks with heterogeneous accuracy, latency, and cost profiles.
arXiv:2606. 04284v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Preference modeling plays a central role in reinforcement learning from human feedback (RLHF), enabling large language models (LLMs) to align with human values.
arXiv:2606. 09891v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Ranking in digital marketplaces is a dynamic exposure-allocation mechanism: displayed items shape discovery trajectories and success events logged by the platform to update future allocation policies.
arXiv:2606. 03866v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Scaling recommender systems via large language models (LLMs) has become a prominent trend in the industry.
arXiv:2602. 07218v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Adaptability has been regarded as a central feature in the foundation models, enabling them to effectively acclimate to unseen downstream tasks.
arXiv:2604. 05859v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study Contextual Multi-Armed Bandits (CMABs) for non-episodic decision-making problems where the context includes both textual and numerical information (e.
