An occurrence of a repeated substring $u$ in a string $S$ is called a net occurrence if extending the occurrence to the left or to the right decreases the number of occurrences to 1. The net frequency (NF) of a repeated substring $u$ in a…
We study a variant of online convex optimization where the player is permitted to switch decisions at most $S$ times in expectation throughout $T$ rounds. Similar problems have been addressed in prior work for the discrete decision set…
The expansion of a hypergraph, a natural extension of the notion of expansion in graphs, is defined as the minimum over all cuts in the hypergraph of the ratio of the number of the hyperedges cut to the size of the smaller side of the cut.…
In the streaming model, the order of the stream can significantly affect the difficulty of a problem. A $t$-semirandom stream was introduced as an interpolation between random-order ($t=1$) and adversarial-order ($t=n$) streams where an…
We consider the \textsf{Unit Interval Selection} problem in the one-pass random order streaming model. Here, an algorithm is presented a sequence of $n$ unit-length intervals on the line that arrive in uniform random order, and the…
This paper studies a distributed online convex optimization problem, where agents in an unbalanced network cooperatively minimize the sum of their time-varying local cost functions subject to a coupled inequality constraint. To solve this…
We consider the problem of online convex optimization against an arbitrary adversary with bandit feedback, known as bandit convex optimization. We give the first $\tilde{O}(\sqrt{T})$-regret algorithm for this setting based on a novel…
We consider the following online optimization problem. We are given a graph $G$ and each vertex of the graph is assigned to one of $\ell$ servers, where servers have capacity $k$ and we assume that the graph has $\ell \cdot k$ vertices.…
We study discrepancy minimization for vectors in $\mathbb{R}^n$ under various settings. The main result is the analysis of a new simple random process in multiple dimensions through a comparison argument. As corollaries, we obtain bounds…
The problem of constrained online convex optimization is considered, where at each round, once a learner commits to an action $x_t \in \mathcal{X} \subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a convex loss function $f_t$ and a convex constraint function $g_t$…
We consider the problem of finding a dense submatrix of a matrix with i.i.d. Gaussian entries, where density is measured by average value. This problem arose from practical applications in biology and social sciences…
We consider the problem of sorting $n$ elements subject to persistent random comparison errors. In this problem, each comparison between two elements can be wrong with some fixed (small) probability $p$, and comparing the same pair of…
We investigate distributed online convex optimization with compressed communication, where $n$ learners connected by a network collaboratively minimize a sequence of global loss functions using only local information and compressed data…
The regret bound of dynamic online learning algorithms is often expressed in terms of the variation in the function sequence ($V_T$) and/or the path-length of the minimizer sequence after $T$ rounds. For strongly convex and smooth…
In this paper we study the mincut problem in the online setting. We consider two distinct models: A) competitive analysis and B) regret analysis. In the competitive setting we consider the vertex arrival model; whenever a new vertex arrives…
We prove that a simple distributed algorithm finds a constant approximation of an optimal distance-$k$ dominating set in graphs with no $K_{2,t}$-minor. The algorithm runs in a constant number of rounds. We further show how this procedure…
In this paper, we investigate the online allocation problem of maximizing the overall revenue subject to both lower and upper bound constraints. Compared to the extensively studied online problems with only resource upper bounds, the…
A major limitation of online algorithms that track the optimizers of time-varying nonconvex optimization problems is that they focus on a specific local minimum trajectory, which may lead to poor spurious local solutions. In this paper, we…
The following optimal stopping problem is considered. The vertices of a graph $G$ are revealed one by one, in a random order, to a selector. He aims to stop this process at a time $t$ that maximizes the expected number of connected…
This paper considers distributed online nonconvex optimization with time-varying inequality constraints over a network of agents, where the nonconvex local loss and convex local constraint functions can vary arbitrarily across iterations.…
