Blocked Collaborative Bandits: Online Collaborative Filtering with Per-Item Budget Constraints
That is, each user can belong to an unknown cluster and the expected reward for an item/movie is same for all users in a cluster.

BewareoftheSimulatedDAG! CausalDiscoveryBenchmarksMayBeEasyToGame
Here, we show that marginal variance tends to increase along the causal order for generically sampled additivenoise models.
