We address the problem of finding the most likely assignment or MAP estimation in a Markov random field. We analyze the linear programming formulation of MAP through the lens of...

We study the regret of an online learner playing a multi-round game in a Banach space B against an adversary that plays a convex function at each round. We characterize the minima...

When dealing with convex functions defined on a normed vector space X the biconjugate is usually considered with respect to the dual system (X, X ), that is, as a function defined...

—We consider constrained minimization of a sum of convex functions over a convex and compact set, when each component function is known only to a specific agent in a timevarying...
