5. 4. An Empirical Survey of Bandits in an Industrial Recommender System Setting

   University essay from Göteborgs universitet/Institutionen för data- och informationsteknik

   Author : Tobias Schwarz; Johan Brandby; [2023-09-21]
   Keywords : computer science; industrial application; machine learning; reinforcement learning; multi-armed bandits; MAB; contextual multi-armed bandits; survey; batch learning;

   Abstract : In this thesis, the effects of incorporating unstructured data—images in the wild—in contextual multi-armed bandits are investigated, when used within a recommender system setting, which focuses on picture-based content suggestion. The idea is to employ image features, extracted by a pre-trained convolutional neural network, and study the resulting bandit behaviors when including respective excluding this information in the typical context creation, which normally relies on structured data sources—such as metadata.
