针对大规模动作空间的强化学习，提出高效探索与稳定估计的新方法。

This thesis studies policy learning in interactive systems where an agent observes a context, selects an action from a very large set, and receives partial feedback. The main framework is contextual bandits, with two paradigms: on-policy learning, where the agent interacts sequentially with the environment and minimizes regret, and off-policy learning, where it learns from logged data collected by a logging policy. In large action spaces, both settings face major challenges: inefficient exploration, sparse data coverage, high-variance importance weights, extrapolation bias, and difficult optimization landscapes. The first part develops structured Bayesian methods for on-policy learning. We introduce meTS, a mixed-effect extension of Thompson sampling, and dTS, which leverages diffusion-inspired priors to model dependencies between actions. These methods share information across actions and yield regret guarantees depending on an effective number of actions. The second part addresses off-policy learning. We propose sDM, a structured direct method based on latent variables, show that optimization error can dominate estimation error in large action spaces, and introduce concave, efficiently optimizable policy-weighted log-likelihood objectives. Finally, we develop differentiable pessimistic methods based on exponential smoothing and PAC-Bayesian bounds to control the bias-variance trade-off of regularized importance-sampling estimators.
