Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Parameter elimination over all s-subsets with epsilon-net guessing (query complexity O(eps^{-s} d^s)) | s-sparse epsilon-misspecified linear bandit · theoretical (query complexity) | query complexity for O(eps)-optimal action | Helped |
| G-optimal design based elimination over s-subsets (no epsilon-net guessing) | s-sparse misspecified linear bandit · theoretical (query complexity) | query complexity and error guarantee | Mixed |
| Feature compression via Johnson-Lindenstrauss plus action elimination on benign (good) features | s-sparse misspecified linear bandit with benign features · theoretical (query complexity) | query complexity for O(s eps)-optimal action | Helped |
| Compression plus l0-constrained estimation on general features | s-sparse misspecified linear bandit with general features · theoretical (query complexity) | query complexity and error | Helped |
| Lower bound: sound algorithms with approximation error Delta need exp(Omega(s)) queries when Delta=O(s^delta eps), delta<1 | s-sparse misspecified linear bandit · theoretical (lower bound) | query lower bound | No clear effect |
