Studies multi-armed bandits where the player may abandon the process, balancing exploration, exploitation, and engagement.
Problem
Standard multi-armed bandit models assume the decision process continues indefinitely, ignoring that users may abandon an interaction, which affects how exploration and exploitation should be balanced.
Approach
Extends the bandit framework with abandonment, so that the player's engagement with the process is modeled explicitly alongside exploration and exploitation. Full method details are unavailable from the abstract provided.
