Bandit learning is characterized by the tension between long-term exploration and short-term exploitation. However, as has recently been noted, in settings in which the choices of the learning algorithm correspond to important decisions…

We define and study greedy matchings in vertex-ordered bipartite graphs. It is shown that each vertex-ordered bipartite graph has a unique greedy matching. The proof uses (a weak form of) Newman's lemma. The vertex ordering is called a…
We show that the greedy algorithm for adaptive-submodular cover has approximation ratio at least 1.3*(1+ln Q). Moreover, the instance demonstrating this gap has Q=1. So, it invalidates a prior result in the paper ``Adaptive Submodularity: A…
A major problem in data augmentation is to ensure that the generated new samples cover the search space. This is a challenging problem and requires exploration for data augmentation policies to ensure their effectiveness in covering the…
In the Set Cover problem, we are given a set system with each set having a weight, and we want to find a collection of sets that cover the universe, whilst having low total weight. There are several approaches known (based on greedy…
