Upper-Linearizability of Online Non-Monotone DR-Submodular Maximization over Down-Closed Convex Sets

arXiv:2602. 20578v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study online maximization of non-monotone Diminishing-Return(DR)-submodular functions over down-closed convex sets, a regime where existing projection-free online methods suffer from suboptimal regret and limited feedback guarantees.

Online Convex Optimization with Dueling Feedback

arXiv:2608. 15050v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study online convex optimization with dueling (pairwise comparison) feedback, where the learner observes only a binary preference between two queried points.

Distributed Online Bandit Submodular Maximization with Bounded Sampling Violations

arXiv:2607. 00680v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study distributed online submodular maximization under partition matroid constraints, in which multiple agents select a limited number of actions from their own subsets sequentially to maximize the cumulative value of a sequence of objective functions.

Convex Optimization with Nested Evolving Feasible Sets

arXiv:2605. 07386v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: \emph{Convex Optimization with Nested Evolving Feasible Sets (CONES)} is considered where the objective function \(f\) remains fixed but the feasible region evolves over time as a nested sequence \(S_1 \supseteq S_2 \supseteq \cdots \supseteq S_T\).

Dynamic Regret for Non-Stationary Linear Bandits via Misspecification Reductions

arXiv:2607. 02891v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Many online decision-making problems involve both round-specific feasible actions and drifting reward models: eligible ad impressions, feasible prices, and available treatments can change over time, while user preferences, demand curves, and patient responses may evolve.

Leveraging Similarities in Multi-Armed Bandits

In many online learning and bandit problems, the actions we consider possess inherent similarities--for instance because they share latent traits, tags, or hierarchical structure. We study online learning with a similarity-structured action set, encoded by a rooted tree whose leaves are the actions and whose levels quantify how closely two actions are related.
