Convex Optimization with Nested Evolving Feasible Sets (CONES) under Time-Varying Loss Functions

arXiv:2609. 11207v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Convex Optimization with Nested Evolving Feasible Sets (CONES)} was introduced in \cite{CONESVaze} where the objective function \(f\) remains fixed but the feasible region evolves over time as a nested sequence \(S_1 \supseteq S_2 \supseteq \cdots \supseteq S_T\).

Lower Bound on the Cumulative Constrained Violation for the OGD+Projection algorithm for Constrained Online Convex Optimization (COCO)

arXiv:2607. 10808v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The problem of constrained online convex optimization is considered, where at each round, once a learner commits to an action $x_t \in \mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a convex loss function $f_t$ and a convex constraint function $g_t$ that drives the constraint $g_t(x)\le 0$ are revealed.

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.

Online Optimization of Difference-of-Convex Compositions with Smooth Mappings

arXiv:2607. 19553v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study online optimization for a broad class of structured non-convex non-smooth problems where each loss is a composition of a difference-of-convex function with a smooth mapping, and the feasible region is defined by constraint functions of the same kind.
