Multi-Armed Sequential Hypothesis Testing by Betting

arXiv:2603.17925v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We consider a variant of sequential testing by betting where, at each time step, the statistician is presented with multiple data sources (arms) and obtains data by choosing one of the arms. We consider the composite global null hypothesis $\mathscr{P}$ that all arms are null in a certain sense (e.g. all dosages of a treatment are ineffective) and we are interested in rejecting $\mathscr{P}$ in favor of a composite alternative $\mathscr{Q}$ where at least one arm is non-null (e.g. there exists an effective treatment dosage). We posit a…
