Adaptive Policy Learning Under Unknown Network Interference
arXiv:2605.11191v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Adaptive experimentation under unknown network interference requires solving two coupled problems: (i) learning the underlying dynamics of interference among units and (ii) using these dynamics to inform treatment allocation in order to maximize a cumulative outcome of interest (e.g. revenue). Existing adaptive experimentation methods either assume the interference network is fully known or bypass the network by operating on coarse cluster-level randomizations. We develop a Thompson sampling algorithm that jointly learns the interference […]
