Large Language Model-Enhanced Multi-Armed Bandits (2026.acl-long)
Copied to clipboard
| Challenge: | Large language models (LLMs) have been used to sequential decision-making tasks like multi-armed bandits where an LLM is tasked with selecting arms in each iteration is often suboptimal. |
| Approach: | They propose to combine MAB and LLMs to leverage the in-context learning capability of LLM for reward prediction. |
| Outcome: | The proposed approach outperforms LLM-based direct arm selection on synthetic tasks where only preference feedback between arm pairs is available. |
