Bandit algorithm vs A/B test: When A/B tests fail due to multiple variants or one-off campaigns, bandit algorithms offer a more efficient solution by focusing budget on the best performing ad variant in real-time. Bandit algorithms maximize rewards by serving the ad variant with the highest KPI, making them ideal for campaigns with numerous treatments or special events.
