Publication Top Notes

1. Stochastic Submodular Bandits with Delayed Composite Anonymous Bandit Feedback

  • Authors: Mohammad Pedramfar, Vaneet Aggarwal
  • Published in: IEEE Transactions on Artificial Intelligence, 2025
  • Summary: This paper addresses the combinatorial multi-armed bandit problem with stochastic submodular rewards and delayed, composite anonymous feedback. The authors analyze three delay modelsโ€”bounded adversarial, stochastic independent, and stochastic conditionally independentโ€”and derive regret bounds for each. Their findings indicate that delays introduce an additive term in the regret, affecting overall performance.
