Move from Perturbed scheme to exponential weighting average
[article]
2015
arXiv
pre-print
Finally, we show with some examples that follow-the-leader style algorithms extend naturally to a large class of structured online problems for which the exponential algorithms are inefficient. ...
However, recently, another algorithm called follow the perturbed leader is developed and achieved about the same performance. ...
Conclusion We show that for expert advice problem, the follow perturbed leading expert algorithm could be equivalent to the modern exponential weighted average algorithm by carefully choosing the perturbation ...

Connections between markets and learning
2010
ACM SIGecom Exchanges
We provide an overview of recent research exploring the striking mathematical connections that exist between market maker mechanisms for prediction markets and no-regret learning. ...
We describe how these connections can be used in the design of efficient prediction markets over combinatorial outcome spaces. ...
In general, choosing weights in this manner will prevent all of the algorithm's weight from being placed on a single expert. WM can be written in this form with an entropy term as the regularizer. ...

More importantly, these follow-the-leader style algorithms extend naturally to a large class of structured online problems for which the exponential algorithms are inefficient. ...
We show that by slightly perturbing the totals and then choosing the best decision, the expected performance is nearly as good as the best decision in hindsight. ...
