Adversarial Sleeping Bandit Problems with Multiple Plays: Algorithm and Ranking Application

27 Jul 2023  ·  Jianjun Yuan, Wei Lee Woon, Ludovik Coba ·

This paper presents an efficient algorithm to solve the sleeping bandit with multiple plays problem in the context of an online recommendation system. The problem involves bounded, adversarial loss and unknown i.i.d. distributions for arm availability. The proposed algorithm extends the sleeping bandit algorithm for single arm selection and is guaranteed to achieve theoretical performance with regret upper bounded by $\bigO(kN^2\sqrt{T\log T})$, where $k$ is the number of arms selected per time step, $N$ is the total number of arms, and $T$ is the time horizon.
