New research tackles dynamic regret in online learning with novel methods · 3 sources tracked

By PulseAugur Editorial · [3 sources] ·

Three new research papers explore dynamic regret minimization in online learning settings. The first paper focuses on Follow-the-Regularized-Leader (FTRL) methods for curved losses and adaptive optimizers like Adam, presenting a reduction that simplifies proofs and offers new guarantees. The second paper introduces a meta-learning framework for dynamic regret with indicator switching costs, achieving minimax-optimal bounds for tracking piecewise-constant comparators. The third paper analyzes the curvature of regret in contextual linear optimization, deriving a closed-form measure and demonstrating its application in improving regret by 30.8% on battery arbitrage tasks.

    Dynamic Regret via Discounted-to-Dynamic Reduction with Applications to Curved Losses and Adam Optimizer

    arXiv:2602.08372v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study dynamic regret minimization in non-stationary online learning, with a primary focus on follow-the-regularized-leader (FTRL) methods. FTRL is important for curved losses and for understanding adaptive optimizers such as …

    Dynamic Regret in Online Convex Optimization with Indicator Switching Costs

    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. This captures startup overheads such as server activation, model depl…

    The Curvature of Regret in Contextual Linear Optimization

    arXiv:2610.01980v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Decision-focused learning for linear optimization is complicated by the discontinuity of the optimizer, where small cost errors may leave the decision unchanged or move it to a different vertex. We show that this non-smooth pointw…
