Online Algorithms for the Multi-Armed Bandit Problem with Markovian Rewards
We consider the classical multi-armed bandit problem with Markovian rewards. When played an arm changes its state in a Markovian fashion while it remains frozen when not played. Th...

Best Arm Identification in Multi-Armed Bandits
We consider the problem of finding the best arm in a stochastic multi-armed bandit game. The regret of a forecaster is here defined by the gap between the mean reward of the optim...
