A majorization-minimization algorithm for (multiple) hyperparameter learning
We present a general Bayesian framework for hyperparameter tuning in L2-regularized supervised learning models. Paradoxically, our algorithm works by first analytically integratin...

Learning algorithms for online principal-agent problems (and selling goods online)
In a principal-agent problem, a principal seeks to motivate an agent to take a certain action beneficial to the principal, while spending as little as possible on the reward. This...
