FixedPolicy implements a "naive" policy which always chooses a prespecified arm.
policy <- FixedPolicy(fixed_arm = 1)
fixed_armnumeric; index of the arm that will be chosen for each time step.
new()Generates a new FixedPolicy object. Arguments are defined in the Argument
section above.
set_parameters()each policy needs to assign the parameters it wants to keep track of
to list self$theta_to_arms that has to be defined in set_parameters()'s body.
The parameters defined here can later be accessed by arm index in the following way:
theta[[index_of_arm]]$parameter_name
get_action(context)here, a policy decides which arm to choose, based on the current values of its parameters and, potentially, the current context.
set_reward(reward, context)in set_reward(reward, context), a policy updates its parameter values
based on the reward received, and, potentially, the current context.
