Анотація

• The article introduces a framework for repeated principal-agent bandit games.
• Misaligned objectives between principal and agent are addressed through incentives.
• The principal aims to maximize utility by learning optimal incentive policies.
• Algorithms for regret minimization in multi-armed and contextual settings are presented.
• Theoretical guarantees are supported by numerical experiments.
• The work bridges mechanism design and learning aspects in principal-agent models.

• Lower bounds for regret in bandit settings are discussed.

Статистика

"Nearly optimal (with respect to a horizon T) learning algorithms for the principal’s regret in both multi-armed and linear contextual settings."
"The overall algorithm achieves both nearly optimal distribution-free and instance-dependent regret bounds."
"Contextual IPA achieves a O(d √ T log(T)) regret bound."
