Description
Bandit Algorithms: A Foundation for Optimization and Learning
This comprehensive textbook introduces the fundamental concepts of bandit algorithms, which are essential tools for optimization and learning in various fields, including economics, computer science, and artificial intelligence.
The book covers a wide range of topics, from stochastic processes and Markov chains to concentration of measure, exploration-exploitation trade-offs, and lower bounds. It also delves into specific applications such as contextual bandits, non-stationary bandits, and combinatorial bandits.
