We study the combinatorial semi-bandit problem where an agent selects a subset of base arms and receives individual feedback. While this generalizes the classical multi-armed bandit and has broad applicability, its scalability is limited by…

We study an online caching problem in which requests can be served by a local cache to avoid retrieval costs from a remote server. The cache can update its state after a batch of requests and store an arbitrarily small fraction of each…

We consider prediction with expert advice when the loss vectors are assumed to lie in a set described by the sum of atomic norm balls. We derive a regret bound for a general version of the online mirror descent (OMD) algorithm that uses a…
