Definition. Feedback operator [ftip-0053]

Let \(\mathcal R\) be the set of immutable rollout records and \(\mathcal F\) a typed set of feedback events. A feedback operator is a possibly randomized kernel

\[\mathsf {Feed}:\mathcal R\rightsquigarrow \mathcal F.\]

A feedback event may contain an outcome score, step labels, a preference, or an abstention. Its type records which observations were available when it was produced.
