Constrained Contextual Bandits with Adversarial Contexts

ArXi:2605.06190v1 Announce Type: new We study budget-constrained contextual bandits with adversarial contexts, where each action yields a random reward and incurs a random cost. We adopt the standard realizability assumption: conditioned on the observed context, rewards and costs are drawn independently from fixed distributions whose expectations belong to known function classes. We focus on the continuing setting, in which the algorithm operates over the entire horizon even after the budget for cumulative cost is exhausted.
