Researchers have developed new algorithms for online learning problems where actions have inherent similarities, such as those represented by a rooted tree structure. These algorithms are designed to leverage these similarities to improve performance, particularly in scenarios with limited feedback. The study establishes an impossibility result for standard one-point bandit feedback, demonstrating its inability to exploit action similarities. However, the proposed algorithms offer best-of-both-worlds guarantees by adapting to richer feedback models and replacing the total number of actions with a similarity-aware effective number in regret bounds.
