Bandits

A novel problem setting where heterogeneous multi-agent bandits collaborate over a network to minimize their group regret. To deal with the high communication complexity of the classic flooding protocol combined with UCB, a new network protocol called Flooding with Absorption (FwA) is proposed. Theoretical and empirical analyses are provded for flooding and FwA, showing the efficacy of our proposed FwA.
