Single-Agent Policy Tree Search With Guarantees

Laurent Orseau, Levi H. S. Lelis, Tor Lattimore +1

We introduce two novel tree search algorithms that use a policy to guide search. The first algorithm is a best-first enumeration that uses a cost function that allows us to prove a…

Garbage In, Reward Out: Bootstrapping Exploration in Multi-Armed Bandits

Branislav Kveton, Csaba Szepesvari, Sharan Vaswani +3

We propose a bandit algorithm that explores by randomizing its history of rewards. Specifically, it pulls the arm with the highest mean reward in a non-parametric bootstrap sample…

Online Learning to Rank with Features

Shuai Li, Tor Lattimore, Csaba Szepesvári

We introduce a new model for online ranking in which the click probability factors into an examination and attractiveness function and the attractiveness function is a linear funct…

Linear Bandits with Stochastic Delayed Feedback

Claire Vernade, Alexandra Carpentier, Tor Lattimore +3

Stochastic linear bandits are a natural and well-studied model for structured exploration/exploitation problems and are widely used in applications such as online marketing and rec…

BubbleRank: Safe Online Learning to Re-Rank via Implicit Click Feedback

Chang Li, Branislav Kveton, Tor Lattimore +4

In this paper, we study the problem of safe online learning to re-rank, where user feedback is used to improve the quality of displayed lists. Learning to rank has traditionally be…

TopRank: A practical algorithm for online stochastic ranking

Tor Lattimore, Branislav Kveton, Shuai Li +1

Online learning to rank is a sequential decision-making problem where in each round the learning agent chooses a list of items and receives feedback in the form of clicks from the…
