I’ll be presenting this work “Ranked Prioritization of Groups in Combinatorial Bandit Allocation” today at #INFORMS2022!
Tuesday 10/18
12:30pm
CC room 204
In the session Fairness in Sequential Decision-Making, chaired by @seanrsinclair and @banerjee_sid
In resource allocation, our actions may impact many groups simultaneously. If some groups are more vulnerable, we want to ensure our actions benefit those groups most.
Our new paper formulates this as a multi-armed bandit that trades off b/t reward and group prioritization. ⚖️
ALT Elephants (more vulnerable) and deer (less vulnerable) spread out five regions. Each region has some unknown reward function, mu_i.
