arXiv:2606. 28616v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In stochastic linear bandits, the canonical Upper Confidence Bound (UCB) algorithm admits a simple frequentist regret analysis but can be computationally demanding, while Thompson Sampling (TS) is computationally attractive yet typically harder to analyze due to its non-optimistic nature.
arXiv:2502. 08870v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We provide an approach for the analysis of randomised exploration algorithms like Thompson sampling that does not rely on forced optimism or posterior inflation.
arXiv:2510.10730v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We provide a unified algorithmic framework for ensemble sampling in nonlinear contextual bandits and develop corresponding regret bounds for two mo...
arXiv:2609. 13954v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Ensemble sampling offers a practical approach to randomized exploration by maintaining a collection of models, but how small an ensemble can be while retaining strong regret guarantees remains unresolved.
arXiv:2606. 00431v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We prove a variance-sensitive regret bound for Thompson sampling in stochastic generalised linear bandits.
arXiv:2608. 01069v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Bandit algorithms generate data for downstream inference, but adaptive sampling biases post-bandit sample means.
