Multiarmed bandit problem is a typical example of a dilemma between exploration and exploitation in reinforcement learning. This problem is expressed as a model of a gambler playi...
We analyze the regret, measured in terms of log loss, of the maximum likelihood (ML) sequential prediction strategy. This "follow the leader" strategy also defines one o...
