Title: Online Newton Method for Bandit Convex Optimisation
Authors: Hidde Fokkema, Dirk van der Hoeven, Tor Lattimore, Jack J. Mayo,
Abstract summary: We introduce a computationally efficient algorithm for zeroth-order bandit convex optimisation. We prove that in the adversarial setting its regret is at most $d3.5 sqrtn mathrmpolylog(n, d)$ with high probability where $d$ is the time horizon. In the setting the bound improves to $M d2 sqrtn mathrmpolylog(n, d)$ where $M in [d-1/2, d-1 / 4]$ is

Abstract: We introduce a computationally efficient algorithm for zeroth-order bandit convex optimisation and prove that in the adversarial setting its regret is at most $d^{3.5} \sqrt{n} \mathrm{polylog}(n, d)$ with high probability where $d$ is the dimension and $n$ is the time horizon. In the stochastic setting the bound improves to $M d^{2} \sqrt{n} \mathrm{polylog}(n, d)$ where $M \in [d^{-1/2}, d^{-1 / 4}]$ is a constant that depends on the geometry of the constraint set and the desired computational properties.

Optimal Sketching for Residual Error Estimation for Matrix and Vector Norms [50.15964512954274]
We study the problem of residual error estimation for matrix and vector norms using a linear sketch. We demonstrate that this gives a substantial advantage empirically, for roughly the same sketch size and accuracy as in previous work. We also show an $Omega(k2/pn1-2/p)$ lower bound for the sparse recovery problem, which is tight up to a $mathrmpoly(log n)$ factor.

Nearly Optimal Regret for Decentralized Online Convex Optimization [53.433398074919]
Decentralized online convex optimization (D-OCO) aims to minimize a sequence of global loss functions using only local computations and communications. We develop novel D-OCO algorithms that can respectively reduce the regret bounds for convex and strongly convex functions. Our algorithms are nearly optimal in terms of $T$, $n$, and $rho$.

On the $O(\frac{\sqrt{d}}{T^{1/4}})$ Convergence Rate of RMSProp and Its Momentum Extension Measured by $\ell_1$ Norm [59.65871549878937]
This paper considers the RMSProp and its momentum extension and establishes the convergence rate of $frac1Tsum_k=1T. Our convergence rate matches the lower bound with respect to all the coefficients except the dimension $d$. Our convergence rate can be considered to be analogous to the $frac1Tsum_k=1T.

An Oblivious Stochastic Composite Optimization Algorithm for Eigenvalue Optimization Problems [76.2042837251496]
We introduce two oblivious mirror descent algorithms based on a complementary composite setting. Remarkably, both algorithms work without prior knowledge of the Lipschitz constant or smoothness of the objective function. We show how to extend our framework to scale and demonstrate the efficiency and robustness of our methods on large scale semidefinite programs.

Private Stochastic Convex Optimization: Optimal Rates in $\ell_1$ Geometry [69.24618367447101]
Up to logarithmic factors the optimal excess population loss of any $(varepsilon,delta)$-differently private is $sqrtlog(d)/n + sqrtd/varepsilon n.$ We show that when the loss functions satisfy additional smoothness assumptions, the excess loss is upper bounded (up to logarithmic factors) by $sqrtlog(d)/n + (log(d)/varepsilon n)2/3.

Optimal Regret Algorithm for Pseudo-1d Bandit Convex Optimization [51.23789922123412]
We study online learning with bandit feedback (i.e. learner has access to only zeroth-order oracle) where cost/reward functions admit a "pseudo-1d" structure. We show a lower bound of $min(sqrtdT, T3/4)$ for the regret of any algorithm, where $T$ is the number of rounds. We propose a new algorithm sbcalg that combines randomized online gradient descent with a kernelized exponential weights method to exploit the pseudo-1d structure effectively.
