Linear bandits traditionally prioritize regret minimization, often overlooking statistical inference of the underlying parameter as a critical objective. In high-stakes settings such as healthcare, precise parameter estimation is indispensable, as it provides fundamental insights into system mechani…
Recently, there has been a focus on the streaming setting in a line of works on the Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB). In this scenario, a large number of arms arrive in a streaming manner, and the algorithm scans through the stream and stores some arms in its limited processing memory. We advance this line…
In this paper, we investigate a Multi-Armed Bandit (MAB) setting where an arm exits the game if the algorithm continuously neglects it. This setup is motivated by real-world scenarios, such as online advertising and crowdsourcing, where arms only gain benefits after being pulled by the algorithm. We…
