Learning to Bet for Horizon-Aware Anytime-Valid Testing
Researchers have developed a new method for anytime-valid testing that accounts for deadlines and the amount of data available. This approach, framed as a horizon-aware betting problem, uses a Deep Reinforcement Learning agent to learn optimal betting strategies. The learned policy, based on a Deep Q-Network, demonstrates state-of-the-art performance in limited-horizon experiments. AI
