Strategic experimentation with Poisson bandits
G Keller, S Rady - Theoretical Economics, 2010 - Wiley Online Library
We study a game of strategic experimentation with two‐armed bandits where the risky arm
distributes lump‐sum payoffs according to a Poisson process. Its intensity is either high or …

[PDF][PDF] Assortative learning
J Eeckhout, X Weng - WPU Pennsylvania, 2010 - bse.eu
Because of sorting, more skilled workers are more productive in higher type firms. They also
learn at different rates about their productivity and therefore expect different wage paths …
