초록

We consider the Bernoulli two-armed bandit problem. It is well known that the my optic strategy is optimal when the prior distribution is concentrated at two points in the unit square. We investigate several cases in the unit square whether the my optic strategy is optimal or not. In general, the my optic strategy is not optimal when the prior distribution is not concentrated at two points in the unit square.
