arXiv:2602. 06902v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In this paper, we study dynamic regret in unconstrained online convex optimization (OCO) with movement costs.
The paper introduces a straightforward framework that transforms dynamic regret minimization into switching regret minimization by constructing an unbiased random sequence for any comparator sequence. Using this reduction, the authors derive dynamic regret bounds for strongly convex and exp-concave losses of “~O(T^{1/3}P_T^{2/3})” and for general convex losses of “O(√{T(1+P_T)})”, matching known minimax optimal results. The approach leverages off-the-shelf switching regret algorithms and controlled variance to achieve these bounds.
arXiv:2609. 30556v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study dynamic regret in online convex optimization with an \emph{indicator switching cost}: a fixed penalty incurred whenever two consecutive decisions differ.
arXiv:2606. 11711v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Online learning with delayed feedback typically assumes that the learner can track all pending rounds until their feedback arrives.
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 \(S_1 \supseteq S_2 \supseteq \cdots \supseteq S_T\).
