An Improved Analysis of (Variance-Reduced) Policy Gradient and Natural Policy Gradient Methods
Yanli Liu, Kaiqing Zhang, Tamer Başar +1
In this paper, we revisit and improve the convergence of policy gradient (PG), natural PG (NPG) methods, and their variance-reduced variants, under general smooth policy parametriz…
Gradient-tracking based Distributed Optimization with Guaranteed Optimality under Noisy Information Sharing
Yongqiang Wang, Tamer Başar
Distributed optimization enables networked agents to cooperatively solve a global optimization problem even with each participating agent only having access to a local partial view…
A Networked Competitive Multi-Virus SIR Model: Analysis and Observability
Ciyuan Zhang, Sebin Gracy, Tamer Basar +1
This paper proposes a novel discrete-time multi-virus SIR (susceptible-infected-recovered) model that captures the spread of competing SIR epidemics over a population network. Firs…
The H-property of Line Graphons
Mohamed-Ali Belabbas, Xudong Chen, Tamer Basar
We explore in this paper sufficient conditions for the -property to hold, with a particular focus on the so-called line graphons. A graphon is a symmetric, measurable function f…
