TL;DR: A novel latent-bandit algorithm for tackling the cold-start problem for new users joining a recommender system that outperforms the state of the art, simultaneously achieving both higher accuracy and lower regret.
Abstract: We develop a novel latent-bandit algorithm for tackling the cold-start problem for new users joining a recommender system. This new algorithm significantly outperforms the state of the art, simultaneously achieving both higher accuracy and lower regret.
