Stochastic Multi-armed Bandits in Constant Space

We consider the stochastic bandit problem in the sublinear space setting, where one cannot record the win-loss record for all $K$ arms. We give an algorithm using $O(1)$ words of space with regret $\sum_{i=1}^{K}\frac{1}{\Delta_i}\log \frac{\Delta_i}{∆}\log T$ where $\Delta_i$ is the gap between th…
