Optimal and Efficient Online Inverse Optimization

Excerpt

arXiv:2610.08735v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In online inverse linear optimization, a learner recommends an action and then observes the choice of an expert who maximizes a fixed, unknown linear objective on $\mathbb{R}^{d}$; the goal is to learn to optimize this objective without observing it. Sakaue recently obtained the optimal regret $O(\sqrt d)$ with a randomized algorithm making $(dT)^{O(d)}$ linear optimizations per round, and asked whether it can be attained in polynomial time. We ans
