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

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv: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 Adam, yet existing dynamic regret analyses are less explored for FTRL. To address this, we build on the discounted-to-dynamic reduction and present a modular way to obtain dynamic regret bounds of FTRL-related problems. Specifically, we focus on two representative curved losses: linear regression and logistic regression. Our method not only simplifies existing proofs for the optimal dynamic regret of online linear regression, but also yields new dynamic regret guarantees for online logistic regression. Beyond onlin
