Abstract: Rising Multi-Armed Bandits (RMABs) model sequential decision problems where each arm's expected reward improves with repeated pulls. In such proble...

arXiv:2409. 18909v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Motivated by real-world applications that necessitate responsible experimentation, we introduce the problem of best arm identification (BAI) with minimal regret.

arXiv:2606. 08977v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Motivated by the recency effect in online learning, we study algorithms for single-pass *sliding-window streaming multi-armed bandits (MABs)* in this paper.

arXiv:2609. 22690v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We develop an index policy for finite-horizon Bernoulli multi-armed bandits from minimax solutions to single-arm bandit (SAB) problems.

arXiv:2606. 01799v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study $N$-armed stochastic dueling bandits under the Condorcet-winner assumption, where three widely adopted objectives are considered: best-arm identification (BAI), weak regret, and strong regret.

arXiv:2605. 20854v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study a stochastic bandit algorithm motivated by retry-aware objectives that value the best outcome among multiple attempts, such as pass@$k$ and max@$k$.
