A method, an apparatus, and a computer readable medium of recommending contents. The method includes receiving, by a computer, at least one of user input and contextual input, wherein the contextual input corresponds to a plurality of arms, calculating, by the computer, a plurality of reward values for each of the plurality of arms using a plurality of individual recommendation algorithms such that each of the plurality of reward values is generated by a respective individual recommendation algorithm from the plurality of individual recommendation algorithms, based on the received input, calculating, by the computer, an aggregated reward value for each of the plurality of arms by applying linear program boosting to the plurality reward values for the respective arm; and selecting one arm from the plurality of arms which has greatest calculated aggregated reward value; and outputting, by the computer, contents corresponding to the selected arm.

An approach for spending allocation, executed by one or more processors to provide one or more monetary output values in response to a request for determining spending allocation in a digital marketing channel, is provided. The approach fits one or more models to train a business environment simulator. The approach generates a supervised learning policy. The approach evolves a supervised learning policy into a distribution estimator policy by adjusting network weights of the supervised learning policy. The approach generates an optimized policy by evolving the distribution estimator policy through interaction with the business environment simulator. The approach determines a profit uplift of the optimized policy by comparing the optimized policy and the supervised learning policy. Further, in response to the optimized policy outperforming the supervised learning policy, the approach deploys the optimized policy in a live environment.
