Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| use MaxInP or Sta'D instead of RUCB | Contextual preference bandits · Linear score instances, d=10, K=50 | cumulative regret | Helped |
| use MaxInP or Sta'D instead of Self-Sparring | Contextual preference bandits · Linear score instances | cumulative regret | Helped |
| use MaxInP or Sta'D instead of DTS | Contextual preference bandits · Linear score instances | cumulative regret | Helped |
| increase context set size K (ablation) | MaxInP and Sta'D · d=10, T=1500 | final regret | No clear effect |
| increase feature dimension d (ablation) | All algorithms · K=80, T=1500 | final regret | Hurt |
| use Sta'D instead of MaxInP at large d | MaxInP · K=80, T=1500 | final regret | Helped |
| move to non-linear scores with GP-fitted versions of the algorithms | MaxInP and Sta'D · Quadratic, Six-Hump Camel, Gold Stein, d=3, K=50 | cumulative regret | Helped |
| use kernelized Self-Sparring on non-linear scores (ablation) | Self-Sparring · Non-linear score instances | cumulative regret | Helped |
