ArXi:2603.18702v1 Announce Type: new We study off-policy learning (OPL) in contextual bandits, which plays a key role in a wide range of real-world applications such as recommendation systems and online advertising. Typical OPL in contextual bandits assumes an unconstrained environment where a policy can select the same item infinitely. However, in many practical applications, including coupon allocation and e-commerce, limited supply constrains items through budget limits on distributed coupons or inventory restrictions on products.
