Multi-Armed Bandits: Part 5b
Multi-Armed Bandits: Part 6
We've recently built support for multi-armed bandits into the Stitch Fix experimentation platform. This post will explain how and why.

Introducing the multi-armed bandit (MAB) optimization used for hero images on hotels.com
Multi-armed bandits are a simple but very powerful framework for algorithms that make decisions over time under uncertainty. “Introduction to Multi-Armed Bandits” by Alex Slivkins provides an accessible, textbook-like treatment of the subject.
There are multiple ways to doing the same thing in Pandas, and that might make it troublesome for the beginner user.This post is about handling most of the data manipulation cases in Python using a straightforward, simple, and matter of fact way.
