We study the problem of online clustering where a clustering algorithm has to assign a new point that arrives to one of $k$ clusters. The specific formulation we use is the $k$-means objective: At each time step the algorithm has to…

This paper considers online convex optimization with long term constraints, where constraints can be violated in intermediate rounds, but need to be satisfied in the long run. The cumulative constraint violation is used as the metric to…

We propose an online convex optimization algorithm (RescaledExp) that achieves optimal regret in the unconstrained setting without prior knowledge of any bounds on the loss functions. We prove a lower bound showing an exponential separation…

We propose the algorithms for online convex optimization which lead to cumulative squared constraint violations of the form $\sum\limits_{t=1}^T\big([g(x_t)]_+\big)^2=O(T^{1-\beta})$, where $\beta\in(0,1)$. Previous literature has focused…

We study the problem of chasing convex bodies online: given a sequence of convex bodies $K_t\subseteq \mathbb{R}^d$ the algorithm must respond with points $x_t\in K_t$ in an online fashion (i.e., $x_t$ is chosen before $K_{t+1}$ is…

Let $(X, d)$ be a metric space and $C \subseteq 2^X$ -- a collection of special objects. In the $(X,d,C)$-chasing problem, an online player receives a sequence of online requests $\{B_t\}_{t=1}^T \subseteq C$ and responds with a trajectory…
