SUMMARY:Online Convex Optimization with Switching Cost and Delayed Gradient
 s
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Pranab Panda (TIFR)\n\nAbstract: \nThis paper focuses 
 on Online Convex Optimization (OCO) problem with linear and quadratic swit
 ching costs and by the help of an online algorithm OMGD(Online Multiple Gr
 adient Descent) for a class of L smooth and μ strongly convex functions\,
  in limited information setting (where at time t we choose x_t without kno
 wing f_t and our objective is to minimise f(x) + S(x_t-1\, x_t) summed ove
 r t. S(.\,.) is the switching cost)\, we can achieve a competitive ratio o
 f at most 4(L + 5) + 16(L + 5)/μ for quadratic switching cost.Online conv
 ex optimization captures many crucial real world problems like server mana
 gement in data centres\, etc. We will also try to look at how the performa
 nce of online algorithms changes even when the switching cost changes from
  quadratic to linear.\nPaper: https://arxiv.org/abs/2310.11880\n
