Given any increasing sequence of norms $\|\cdot\|_0,\dots,\|\cdot\|_{T-1}$, we provide an online convex optimization algorithm that outputs points $w_t$ in some domain $W$ in response to convex losses $\ell_t:W\to \mathbb{R}$ that…

We study linear bandits when the underlying reward function is not linear. Existing work relies on a uniform misspecification parameter $\epsilon$ that measures the sup-norm error of the best linear approximation. This results in an…

We address the problem of the achievable regret rates with online logistic regression. We derive lower bounds with logarithmic regret under $L_1$, $L_2$, and $L_\infty$ constraints on the parameter values. The bounds are dominated by $d/2…

We investigate online convex optimization in changing environments, and choose the adaptive regret as the performance measure. The goal is to achieve a small regret over every interval so that the comparator is allowed to change over time.…
