Reviews: Efficient Second-Order Online Kernel Learning with Adaptive Embedding

Neural Information Processing Systems

The paper proposes an efficient second-order online kernel learning mainly by combining KONS and Nystrom method. NOVELTY The novelty is limited on both the methodological and theoretical contributions. The achieved results do not have profound implication for the advancement of theory and practice. WRITING QUALITY The English writing and organization of this paper are relatively good. The reviewer strongly suggests the authors arrange Table 2 in the main paper rather than in Appendix because the experimental results in Table 2 are the core material.


Get a Roomba for just 140 with this early Amazon Prime Big Deal Days deal

Popular Science

Amazon's Prime Big Deal Days doesn't kick off until tomorrow, but you don't have to wait to get an astonishingly good deal on an iRobot Roomba Q011. The robot vacuum is available for just 140--a 110 discount--for Prime Subscribers. This is its lowest price ever on Amazon, and the deal is only available while the vacuum remains in stock. Remember, if you don't have an active Amazon Prime subscription, you can sign up for a free, 30-day trial here. The Q011 is Roomba's entry-level model, but it has all the essential features you'll want in a robot vacuum. It'll clean your floors using a three-stage system that adjusts its suction based on the type of flooring it's on.


Amazon Prime Day 2024: We found the best early deals to shop before October Big Deal Days

Engadget

The Amazon Prime Big Deal Days event is coming up in a few days, so it's time to start thinking about what you may want to snag at a discount during the sale. Some may shudder at the thought of holiday shopping already, but if you pay the 139 annual fee for Prime, these sale events are a great time to stock up on essentials and cross things off your shopping list well before the mad rush at the end of the year. While October Prime Day typically isn't on the same scale as Prime Day in July, we typically see some decent deals that may come back around during Black Friday and Cyber Monday. And right now, there are already some good early Prime Day deals to consider. These are the best early Prime Day deals we've found ahead of Prime Big Deal Days.


Amazon Prime Day 2024: The best early deals to shop ahead of the October Big Deal Days event next week

Engadget

Amazon Prime Big Deal Days is back this year, returning on October 8 and 9. The "fall Prime Day" of sorts has served as the online retailer's unofficial kickoff to the holiday shopping season for the past few years. We expect most of the deals to be Prime exclusives, meaning you must be an active Prime subscriber to get the discounts. There are always a couple of deals available for everyone, though, so it's worth perusing Amazon's site even if you don't pay for Prime. It's also worth doing so now because we've found a number of solid early Prime Day deals already available.


Dynamic Revenue Sharing

Neural Information Processing Systems

Many online platforms act as intermediaries between a seller and a set of buyers. Examples of such settings include online retailers (such as Ebay) selling items on behalf of sellers to buyers, or advertising exchanges (such as AdX) selling pageviews on behalf of publishers to advertisers. In such settings, revenue sharing is a central part of running such a marketplace for the intermediary, and fixedpercentage revenue sharing schemes are often used to split the revenue among the platform and the sellers. In particular, such revenue sharing schemes require the platform to (i) take at most a constant fraction α of the revenue from auctions and (ii) pay the seller at least the seller declared opportunity cost c for each item sold. A straightforward way to satisfy the constraints is to set a reserve price at c/(1 α) for each item, but it is not the optimal solution on maximizing the profit of the intermediary.


The best early Prime Day deals we could find ahead of Amazon's October Big Deal Days event

Engadget

Since 2022, Amazon has held a second Prime Day of sorts in October and that sale event is coming back this year, too. Prime Big Deal Days returns on October 8 and 9, but we're already starting to see some decent deals pop up across Amazon's site. As per usual, most of the deals we expected to see on October Prime Day will be exclusively for Prime members -- and some of the early Prime Day deals we're seeing now have followed suit. If you don't have a Prime membership, don't fret too much -- there are always a few discounts available for all shoppers. However, if you pay the 139 annual fee for Prime, now's the time to put it to even better use.

Efficient Second-Order Online Kernel Learning with Adaptive Embedding

Neural Information Processing Systems

Online kernel learning (OKL) is a flexible framework for prediction problems, since the large approximation space provided by reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces often contains an accurate function for the problem. Nonetheless, optimizing over this space is computationally expensive. Not only first order methods accumulate O( T) more loss than the optimal function, but the curse of kernelization results in a O(t) per-step complexity.
