Optimistic Safety for Linearly-Constrained Online Convex Optimization

no code implementations9 Mar 2024 Spencer Hutchinson, Tianyi Chen, Mahnoosh Alizadeh

In this work, we consider a version of this problem with static linear constraints that the player receives noisy feedback of and must always satisfy.

Directional Optimism for Safe Linear Bandits

1 code implementation29 Aug 2023 Spencer Hutchinson, Berkay Turan, Mahnoosh Alizadeh

Lastly, we introduce a generalization of the safe linear bandit setting where the constraints are convex and adapt our algorithms and analyses to this setting by leveraging a novel convex-analysis based approach.

Safe Pricing Mechanisms for Distributed Resource Allocation with Bandit Feedback

no code implementations28 Jul 2023 Spencer Hutchinson, Berkay Turan, Mahnoosh Alizadeh

In societal-scale infrastructures, such as electric grids or transportation networks, pricing mechanisms are often used as a way to shape users' demand in order to lower operating costs and improve reliability.

The Impact of the Geometric Properties of the Constraint Set in Safe Optimization with Bandit Feedback

no code implementations1 May 2023 Spencer Hutchinson, Berkay Turan, Mahnoosh Alizadeh

Simulation results for this algorithm support the sublinear regret bound and provide empirical evidence that the sharpness of the constraint set impacts the performance of the algorithm.
