Online Learning: Random Averages, Combinatorial Parameters, and Learnability
We develop a theory of online learning by defining several complexity measures. Among them are analogues of Rademacher complexity, covering numbers and fatshattering dimension fro...

Applying metaheuristic techniques to search the space of bidding strategies in combinatorial auctions
Many non-cooperative settings that could potentially be studied using game theory are characterized by having very large strategy spaces and payoffs that are costly to compute. Be...

Self-Concordant Barriers for Convex Approximations of Structured Convex Sets
We show how to approximate the feasible region of structured convex optimization problems by a family of convex sets with explicitly given and efficient (if the accuracy of the ap...

Free-Riding and Free-Labor in Combinatorial Agency
Abstract. This paper studies a setting where a principal needs to motivate teams of agents whose efforts lead to an outcome that stochastically depends on the combination of agent...
