给出一个例子:假设有好几个不同的k-armed bandit问题,每次选择后你将随机面对不同一个问题,这种问题使用我们之前的方法不能很好地解决,除非真实action value变化的很慢。 假设你有一个策略(policy)当出现一种情况,你就可以根据它选择该状态下最好的action,这就是关联搜索问题(associative search task),在学术上经...
Swarm Intelligence in a Multi-‐‑‒Armed Bandit Task with Word-‐‑‒of-‐‑‒Mouth① Choose a machine with social information (recent Frequency; recent Rating)② Get own payoffs(it was private ...
这就是多臂赌博机问题(Multi-armedbanditproblem,K-armedbanditproblem...的好坏?多臂问题里有一个概念叫做累计遗憾(regret):解释一下这个公式: 首先,这里我们讨论的每个臂的收益非0即1,也就是伯努利收益。 公式1最直接:每次选择后,上帝都告诉你,和本该最佳的选择...
Multi-armed bandits refer to a task where a fixed amount of resources must be allocated between competing resources that maximizes expected gain. Typically these problems involve an exploration/exploitation trade-off. ( Image credit: Microsoft Research )...
associative search task包括trial and error,search for the best actions和association,也称为contextual bandits。此类问题像full RL problem,包括学习一个policy,也想bandit problem,使用immediate reward。 2.10 Summary 本章列了一些平衡exploration and exploitation的简单方法:epsilon-greedy,UCB,gradient bandit algorith...
What is the multi-armed bandit problem? MAB is named after a thought experiment where a gambler has to choose among multiple slot machines with different payouts, and a gambler’s task is to maximize the amount of money he takes back home. Imagine for a moment that you’re the gambler. ...

Here’s where it gets particularly interesting: while intuitively one might think the task of our Multi-armed Bandit algorithms is to unearth that ideal price where the probability of purchase is highest, it’s not quite so straightforward. In fact, our ultimate goal is to maximize the revenu...
总结: Multi-armed bandit problem(又称k-armed bandit problem)并非完全的reinforcement learning,而只是其简化版本。 所以该书将bandit问题作为引子,引出reinforcement learning的问题。reinforcement learning中的一些概念都是其中的一些概念扩展而来的。
Task description The multi-armed bandit task (MABT) usually involves choosing among multiple possible actions that lead to immediate reward and about which nothing is initially known. The MABT took its name from the "one-armed bandit," another term for the slot machine. Rather than the one ...
