Non-monotonic Resource Utilization in the Bandits with Knapsacks Problem

This repository contains code for the paper "Non-monotonic Resource Utilization in the Bandits with Knapsacks Problem" published in NeurIPS 2022.

Usage

1. Create a data file according to the format mentioned in the data/format.txt and store it in the data directory.
2. Change directory to src.
3. Run python main.py --data_filename {name of the data file created in step 1} --trials {number of trials of the algorithms to average over} --learning {include if you want to run the learning algorithm, exclude if not}.
4. The plots are stored in the plots directory.
