New frameworks reduce oracle queries for combinatorial semi-bandits

Researchers have developed new frameworks for the combinatorial semi-bandit problem, which involves selecting subsets of base arms and receiving individual feedback. These frameworks significantly reduce the number of required oracle queries, a major bottleneck for scalability. The proposed algorithms achieve near-optimal regret bounds with only logarithmic oracle calls, even extending to non-linear reward settings. AI

    Oracle-Efficient Combinatorial Semi-Bandits

    arXiv:2510.21431v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study the combinatorial semi-bandit problem where an agent selects a subset of base arms and receives individual feedback. While this generalizes the classical multi-armed bandit and has broad applicability, its scalability i…
