Alternation makes the adversary weaker in two-player games

Volkan Cevher, Ali Kavis, Luca Viano, Efstratios Panteleimon Skoulakis

Motivated by alternating game-play in two-player games, we study an altenating variant of the Online Linear Optimization (OLO). In alternating OLO, a learner at each round t ∈[n] selects a vector xt and then an adversary selects a cost-vector ct ∈[−1,1]n. ...
