On Minimax Optimal Offline Policy Evaluation
Lihong Li, Remi Munos, Csaba Szepesvari
This paper studies the off-policy evaluation problem, where one aims to estimate the value of a target policy based on a sample of observations collected by another policy. We firs…
Bayesian Optimal Control of Smoothly Parameterized Systems: The Lazy Posterior Sampling Algorithm
Yasin Abbasi-Yadkori, Csaba Szepesvari
We study Bayesian optimal control of a general class of smoothly parameterized Markov decision problems. Since computing the optimal control is computationally expensive, we design…
Optimal Resource Allocation with Semi-Bandit Feedback
Tor Lattimore, Koby Crammer, Csaba Szepesvári
We study a sequential resource allocation problem involving a fixed number of recurring jobs. At each time-step the manager should distribute available resources among the jobs in…
Adaptive Monte Carlo via Bandit Allocation
James Neufeld, András György, Dale Schuurmans +1
We consider the problem of sequentially choosing between a set of unbiased Monte Carlo estimators to minimize the mean-squared-error (MSE) of a final combined estimate. By reducing…
