      A modification of the UCB algorithm developed for the stochastic multi-armed bandit problem by \textit{P. Auer, N. Cesa-Bianchi} and \textit{P. Fischer} [Mach. Learn. 47, No. 2--3, 235--256 (2002; Zbl 1012.68093)] is presented, which leads to an improvement of the regret bounds of the original UCB algorithm. Both cases of known as well as unknown horizon T are considered.
