We propose an online algorithm for cumulative regret minimization in a stochastic multi-armed bandit. The algorithm adds O(t)O(t) i.i.d. pseudo-rewards to its history in round tt and then pulls the arm with the highest average reward in its perturbed history. Therefore, we call it perturbed-history exploration (PHE). Th…
