Researchers prove last-iterate guarantees for learning in co-coercive games

Researchers have established finite-time last-iterate guarantees for stochastic gradient descent in co-coercive games, even with noisy feedback. This work extends previous findings by relaxing the assumption of vanishing noise to a more general model where noise can scale with the iterates. The paper presents a new theoretical bound of $O(\log(t)/t^{1/3})$ for such games, marking the first such guarantee under non-vanishing noise conditions. Additionally, the study demonstrates the convergence of iterates to Nash equilibria and provides time-average convergence guarantees. AI

    Last-Iterate Guarantees for Learning in Co-coercive Games

    We establish finite-time last-iterate guarantees for vanilla stochastic gradient descent in co-coercive games under noisy feedback. This is a broad class of games that is more general than strongly monotone games, allows for multiple Nash equilibria, and includes examples such as…
