We investigate the fixed-budget best-arm identification (BAI) problem for linear bandits in a potentially non-stationary environment. Given a finite arm set $\mathcal{X}\subset\mathbb{R}^d$, a fixed budget $T$, and an unpredictable sequence…
Multi-arm bandit (MAB) algorithms have been used to learn optimal beams for millimeter wave communication systems. Here, the complexity of learning the optimal beam linearly scales with the number of beams, leading to high latency when…
We propose a {\em novel} piecewise stationary linear bandit (PSLB) model, where the environment randomly samples a context from an unknown probability distribution at each changepoint, and the quality of an arm is measured by its return…
Beamforming-capable antenna arrays overcome the high free-space path loss at higher carrier frequencies. However, the beams must be properly aligned to ensure that the highest power is radiated towards (and received by) the user equipment…
Next-generation wireless services are characterized by a diverse set of requirements, to sustain which, the wireless access points need to probe the users in the network periodically. In this regard, we study a novel multi-armed bandit…
We consider the best arm identification (BAI) problem in the $K-$armed bandit framework with a modification - the agent is allowed to play a subset of arms at each time slot instead of one arm. Consequently, the agent observes the sample…
Beamforming-capable antenna arrays with many elements enable higher data rates in next generation 5G and 6G networks. In current practice, analog beamforming uses a codebook of pre-configured beams with each of them radiating towards a…

We consider a variant of the best arm identification (BAI) problem in multi-armed bandits (MAB) in which there are two sets of arms (source and target), and the objective is to determine the best target arm while only pulling source arms.…
We consider the fixed-confidence best arm identification (FC-BAI) problem in the Bayesian setting. This problem aims to find the arm of the largest mean with a fixed confidence level when the bandit model has been sampled from the known…
Millimeter-wave (mm-wave) systems rely on narrow-beams to cope with the severe signal attenuation in the mm-wave frequency band. However, susceptibility to beam mis-alignment due to mobility or blockage requires the use of beam-alignment…
