Bandits on graphs and structures

arXiv CS.LG

ArXi:2605.03493v1 Announce Type: new The goal of this thesis is to investigate the structural properties of certain sequential problems in order to bring the solutions closer to a practical use. In the first part, we put a special emphasis on structures that can be represented as graphs on actions. In the second part, we study the large action spaces that can be of exponential size in the number of base actions or even infinite. For graph bandits, we consider the settings of smoothness of rewards (spectral bandits), side observations, and influence maximization.
