Multinomial logit bandit is a sequential subset selection problem which arises in many applications. In each round, the player selects a KK-cardinality subset from NN candidate items, and receives a reward which is governed by a {\it multinomial logit} (MNL) choice model considering both item utility and substitution…

method Analyzes the impact of floating-point precision limits on gradient updates and feature means.
result Numerical Feature Inflation (NFI) explains loss spikes and rapid parameter norm growth.

We consider neural network training, in applications in which there are many possible classes, but at test-time, the task is a binary classification task of determining whether the given example belongs to a specific class, where the class of interest can be different each time the classifier is applied. For instance, …

In discrete choice modeling (DCM), model misspecifications may lead to limited predictability and biased parameter estimates. In this paper, we propose a new approach for estimating choice models in which we divide the systematic part of the utility specification into (i) a knowledge-driven part, and (ii) a data-driven…
