- 结合随机特征与折扣机制,构建分层自适应算法
- 理论证明动态误差随时间增长为O(T^{2/3}P_T^{1/3})
- 适合需要实时更新且函数变化较平滑的场景
研究在再生核希尔伯特空间(RKHS)中,针对时变函数序列的无约束二次损失在线回归问题。近期,Jacobsen 和 Cutkosky(2024)提出了折扣Vovk-Azoury-Warmuth(DVAW)预测器,在有限维情形下实现最优动态后悔。本文将该方法推广至非参数域,通过融合随机特征近似构建完全自适应的分层算法——H-VAW-D(Hierarchical Vovk-Azoury-Warmuth with Discounting),同时学习折扣因子与随机特征数量。我们证明该算法每轮复杂度为 $O(T ext{ln} T)$,期望动态后悔为 $O(T^{2/3}P_T^{1/3} + ext{sqrt}{T} ext{ln} T)$,其中 $P_T$ 为比较序列的功能路径长度。
原文摘要 · Abstract (English)
We study the problem of online regression with the unconstrained quadratic loss against a time-varying sequence of functions from a Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Space (RKHS). Recently, Jacobsen and Cutkosky (2024) introduced a discounted Vovk-Azoury-Warmuth (DVAW) forecaster that achieves optimal dynamic regret in the finite-dimensional case. In this work, we lift their approach to the non-parametric domain by synthesizing the DVAW framework with a random feature approximation. We propose a fully adaptive, hierarchical algorithm, which we call H-VAW-D (Hierarchical Vovk-Azoury-Warmuth with Discounting), that learns both the discount factor and the number of random features. We prove that this algorithm, which has a per-iteration computational complexity of $O(T\ln T)$, achieves an expected dynamic regret of $O(T^{2/3}P_T^{1/3} + \sqrt{T}\ln T)$, where $P_T$ is the functional path length of a comparator sequence.
