High dimensional Bayesian Optimization via Condensing-Expansion Projection

Jiaming Lu, Rong J. B. Zhu

In high-dimensional settings, Bayesian optimization (BO) can be expensive and infeasible. The random embedding Bayesian optimization algorithm is commonly used to address high-dime…

UCB Exploration for Fixed-Budget Bayesian Best Arm Identification

Rong J. B. Zhu, Yanqi Qiu

We study best-arm identification (BAI) in the fixed-budget setting. Adaptive allocations based on upper confidence bounds (UCBs), such as UCBE, are known to work well in BAI. Howev…

Robust Contextual Linear Bandits

Rong Zhu, Branislav Kveton

Model misspecification is a major consideration in applications of statistical methods and machine learning. However, it is often neglected in contextual bandits. This paper studie…

Gradient Descent Temporal Difference-difference Learning

Rong J. B. Zhu, James M. Murray

Off-policy algorithms, in which a behavior policy differs from the target policy and is used to gain experience for learning, have proven to be of great practical value in reinforc…

Deep Bandits Show-Off: Simple and Efficient Exploration with Deep Networks

Rong Zhu, Mattia Rigotti

Designing efficient exploration is central to Reinforcement Learning due to the fundamental problem posed by the exploration-exploitation dilemma. Bayesian exploration strategies l…
