Online Optimization on Hadamard Manifolds: Curvature Independent Regret Bounds on Horospherically Convex Objectives

  • 基于双曲凸性设计在线梯度下降算法
  • 实现与欧氏空间相同的 $O(\sqrt{T})$ 与 $O(\log T)$ 误差界
  • 适用于对称正定矩阵流形,如协方差估计

研究在哈达玛德流形上基于双曲凸性(h-convexity)的在线黎曼优化。以往工作多依赖测地凸性(g-convexity),导致误差界随流形曲率恶化。本文分析了针对h-凸和强h-凸函数的黎曼在线梯度下降,分别建立了$O(\sqrt{T})$和$O(\log T)$的误差保证,且不依赖曲率,与欧氏情形一致。通过在对称正定(SPD)矩阵流形(采用仿射不变度量)上的实验验证,研究了在线Tyler's $M$-估计和在线Fréchet均值计算,展示了h-凸性在实际中的应用价值。

原文摘要 · Abstract (English)

We study online Riemannian optimization on Hadamard manifolds under the framework of horospherical convexity (h-convexity). Prior work mostly relies on the geodesic convexity (g-convexity), leading to regret bounds scaling poorly with the manifold curvature. To address this limitation, we analyze Riemannian online gradient descent for h-convex and strongly h-convex functions and establish $O(\sqrt{T})$ and $O(\log(T))$ regret guarantees, respectively. These bounds are curvature-independent and match the results in the Euclidean setting. We validate our approach with experiments on the manifold of symmetric positive definite (SPD) matrices equipped with the affine-invariant metric. In particular, we investigate online Tyler's $M$-estimation and online Fréchet mean computation, showing the application of h-convexity in practice.
