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.

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 Sublinear Noisy Probes

arXiv:2606. 14640v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study Online Convex Optimization (OCO) over a convex set $K\subseteq \mathbb R^d$, where in each round $t$ the learner selects $x_t\in K$ and then observes a convex loss $f_t:K\to[0,1]$, with the goal of minimizing regret to the best fixed decision in hindsight.

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.
