arXiv:2606. 14929v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Modern recommendation systems increasingly rely on dynamically routing diverse queries to multiple embedding models.

arXiv:2607. 23765v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) achieve impressive performance across multiple domains, but using the most capable model for every query is prohibitive at scale.

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:2606. 06178v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Large language models (LLMs) present a trade-off between performance and cost, where more powerful models incur greater expense.

arXiv:2607. 09015v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study contextual bandit problems with correlated arms and access to surrogate reward signals produced by a machine learning model, motivated by applications such as large language model (LLM) routing.

arXiv:2606. 08410v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Personalized decision-making in multi-objective bandits requires learning user-specific trade-offs among competing 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. 00984v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study linear contextual bandits under rare parameter updates: the learner may incorporate reward feedback into its parameter estimate only at a small number of update times, while still observing contexts online and selecting actions sequentially.

arXiv:2606. 07392v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Motivated by Large Language Model (LLM) cascading, we propose an online contextual Pandora's Box model for adaptively querying and selecting LLM APIs.

We introduce Multinomial Subset Routing (MSR), a new online routing framework over $K$ experts in which the learner keeps a multinomial routing policy instead of a deterministic subset of experts. At each round, the learner samples $M$ experts i.
