Online sequential-decision making via bandit algorithms, modeling considerations for better decisions (Invited Talk @ BMS-ANed)

The multi-armed bandit (MAB) framework holds great promise for optimizing sequential decisions online as new data arise. For example, it could be used to design adaptive experiments that can result in better participant outcomes and improved …

Multinomial Thompson sampling for rating scales and prior considerations for calibrating uncertainty

Bandit algorithms such as Thompson sampling (TS) have been put forth for decades as useful tools for conducting adaptively-randomised experiments. By skewing the allocation toward superior arms, they can substantially improve particular outcomes of …

Multinomial Thompson Sampling for Online Sequential Decision Making with Rating Scales (Invited Seminar @ Federico II di Napoli)

Multi-armed bandit algorithms such as Thompson sampling (TS) have been put forth for decades as useful tools for optimizing sequential decision-making in online experiments. By skewing the allocation ratio towards superior arms, they can minimize …
