Leveraging Predictions in Smoothed Online Convex Optimization via Gradient-based Algorithms

Yingying Li, Na Li

We consider online convex optimization with time-varying stage costs and additional switching costs. Since the switching costs introduce coupling across all stages, multi-step-ahea…

Zeroth-Order Feedback Optimization for Cooperative Multi-Agent Systems

Yujie Tang, Zhaolin Ren, Na Li

We study a class of cooperative multi-agent optimization problems, where each agent is associated with a local action vector and a local cost, and the goal is to cooperatively find…
