The pretraining method helps the RMDN avoid bad local minima during training and improves its robustness to the persistent NaN problem, as defined by Guillaumes [2017], which is often encountered with mixture density networks.

Simulation experiments assess the performance of the arm selection algorithms based on the two novel estimation approaches, and such policies are shown to outperform naive benchmarks not taking non-stationarity into account.

To mitigate this problem, the CVaR can be estimated by extrapolating above a lower threshold than the VaR using a generalized Pareto distribution (GPD), which is often referred to as the peaks-over-threshold (POT) approach.

To mitigate this problem, extreme value theory can be used to derive an estimator for the CVaR that uses extrapolation beyond available samples.
