Original Abstract Submitted
techniques of generating recrawl policies for commercial offer pages include generating a multiple strategy approach using a number of different strategies. in some implementations, each strategy is an arm of a k-armed adversarial bandits algorithm with reinforcement learning. moreover, in some implementations, the multiple strategy approach also uses a machine learning algorithm to estimate parameters such as a click rate, impression rate, and likelihood of price change, i.e., change rate, which was assumed known in the conventional approaches.
