A novel general domain adaptation method for contextual bandits is introduced, enabling effective decision-making in diverse settings with distribution shifts. The proposed approach leverages feedback from a source domain to adapt a bandit model for a target domain, achieving sub-linear regret bounds. Empirical results demonstrate superior performance on real-world datasets compared to state-of-the-art algorithms.

A new way is found to help computers make better decisions when the situation changes. Right now, it’s hard to use what we learn in one place (like studying mice) to make good choices in another place (like studying humans). This paper creates a special method that lets us take what we learned from one source and apply it to another with similar problems. It works well and does better than other methods on real-world tasks.
