In this paper we provide a duality theory for multiobjective optimization problems with convex objective functions and finitely many D.C. constraints. In order to do this, we study first the duality for a scalar convex optimization problem with inequality constraints defined by extended real-valued convex functions. For a family of multiobjective problems associated to the initial one we determ...

Geodesic convexity generalizes the notion of (vector space) convexity to nonlinear metric spaces. But unlike convex optimization, geodesically convex (g-convex) optimization is much less developed. In this paper we contribute to the understanding of g-convex optimization by developing iteration complexity analysis for several first-order algorithms on Hadamard manifolds. Specifically, we prove ...

We consider the problem of predicting covariance a zero mean Gaussian vector, based on another feature vector. describe predictor that has form generalized linear model, i.e., an affine function features followed by inverse link maps vectors to symmetric positive definite matrices. The log-likelihood is concave parameters, so fitting involves convex optimization. Such predictors can be combined...

We consider three related online problems: Online Convex Optimization, Convex Body Chasing, and Lazy Convex Body Chasing. In Online Convex Optimization the input is an online sequence of convex functions over some Euclidean space. In response to a function, the online algorithm can move to any destination point in the Euclidean space. The cost is the total distance moved plus the sum of the fun...

We propose an online convex optimization algorithm (RESCALEDEXP) that achieves optimal regret in the unconstrained setting without prior knowledge of any bounds on the loss functions. We prove a lower bound showing an exponential separation between the regret of existing algorithms that require a known bound on the loss functions and any algorithm that does not require such knowledge. RESCALEDE...
