Outreach

I run sessions to introduce students to the multi-armed bandit problem. These sessions are targeted at sixth form students (16-18 years old) and aim to increase their awareness of statistics and encourage them to pursue a career in a statistical field. For these sessions, I created an interactive web-based game for students test out strategies for the Bernoulli bandit problem.

The TryBandits game is available here. An alternative version where the reward distributions are generated randomly is here. The source code can be found here, it is loosely based on this website.
