Modern applications and services are constantly learning from your behavior and adapting to provide a personalized, engaging, and effective experience. This is made possible through a set of machine learning algorithms known as “bandit algorithms”.

Bandit algorithms are incredibly powerful and can be utilized in both the front-end (such as recommendations) and the back-end (like network traffic optimization).

In this session, you’ll learn how bandit algorithms work and how to use them in various scenarios.

Understanding these concepts is also useful from an end-user perspective: you’ll “see the matrix” and recognize when an application is learning from your choices.
