Abstract
In one embodiment, a device causes, in accordance with a probing strategy, performance of a probing test by one or more agents in a network and with respect to an online application. The device obtains quality of experience measurements for the online application. The device adjusts, using reinforcement learning, the probing strategy based on how well a predictive model was able to predict the quality of experience measurements given results of the probing test. The device repeats the causing, obtaining, and adjusting steps using the probing strategy adjusted by the device, to find a minimally disruptive probing strategy that provides acceptable performance by the predictive model.
