kandi X-RAY | LinUCB Summary
Contextual bandit algorithm called LinUCB / Linear Upper Confidence Bounds as proposed by Li, Langford and Schapire. We implemented the two version, one with disjoint and and one with hybrid linear models, as mentioned in the paper. See src/de/thunfischtoast/BanditTest.java for basic usage example as inspired by .

QUESTION
I am trying to implement the algorithm called LinUCB with disjoint linear models from this paper "A Contextual-Bandit Approach to Personalized News Article Recommendation" http://rob.schapire.net/papers/www10.pdf
This is the algorithm: Algorithm 1 LinUCB with disjoint linear models
I am confused about the features vector Xt,a (I highlighted on the algorithm). Is the feature vector related to information (context) of the article(arm) or the user?
I would appreciate your help. Thank you
...ANSWER
Answered 2018-Jul-13 at 22:53The feature vector x_t,a applies to both the user and the arm.
The vector xt,a summarizes information of both the user ut and arm a, and will be referred to as the context.

Install LinUCB
You can use LinUCB like any standard Java library. Please include the the jar files in your classpath. You can also use any IDE and you can run and debug the LinUCB component as you would do with any other Java program. Best practice is to use a build tool that supports dependency management such as Maven or Gradle. For Maven installation, please refer maven.apache.org. For Gradle installation, please refer gradle.org .
