All prior results suffer from at least one of the two obstacles: the curse of multiple agents and the barrier of long horizon, regardless of the sampling protocol in use. We take a step towards settling this problem, assuming access to a flexible sampling mechanism: the generative model. Focusing on non-stationary finite-horizon Markov games, we develop a fast learning algorithm called Q-FTRL and an adaptive sampling scheme that leverage the optimism principle in online adversarial learning (particularly the Follow-the-Regularized-Leader (FTRL) method). Our algorithm learns an $\varepsilon$-approximate CCE in a general-sum Markov game using $$ \widetilde{O}\bigg( \frac{H^4 S \sum_{i=1}^m A_i}{\varepsilon^2} \bigg) $$ samples, where $m$ is the number of players, $S$ indicates the number of states, $H$ is the horizon, and $A_i$ denotes the number of actions for the $i$-th player. This is minimax-optimal (up to log factor) when $m$ is fixed. When applied to two-player zero-sum Markov games, our algorithm provably finds an $\varepsilon$-approximate Nash equilibrium with a minimal number of samples. Along the way, we derive a refined regret bound for FTRL that makes explicit the role of variance-type quantities, which might be of independent interest.

Due to the high communication cost in distributed and federated learning, methods relying on compressed communication are becoming increasingly popular. Besides, the best theoretically and practically performing gradient-type methods invariably rely on some form of acceleration/momentum to reduce the number of communications (faster convergence), e.g., Nesterov's accelerated gradient descent [31, 32] and Adam [14]. In order to combine the benefits of communication compression and convergence acceleration, we propose a \emph{compressed and accelerated} gradient method based on ANITA [20] for distributed optimization, which we call CANITA. Our results show that as long as the number of devices n is large (often true in distributed/federated learning), or the compression \omega is not very high, CANITA achieves the faster convergence rate O\Big(\sqrt{\frac{L}{\epsilon}}\Big), i.e., the number of communication rounds is O\Big(\sqrt{\frac{L}{\epsilon}}\Big) (vs. As a result, CANITA enjoys the advantages of both compression (compressed communication in each round) and acceleration (much fewer communication rounds).

FIRST ON FOX: House Rep. Andy Biggs is eyeing artificial intelligence (AI) technology as a way to cut unnecessary government red tape. The Arizona Republican is introducing a bill on Tuesday that would mandate federal agencies use AI to review regulations under their purview with the aim of cutting rules that fail to meet certain standards. "American businesses must be given the opportunity to thrive without overbearing, costly, contradictory, and duplicative regulations mandated by the DC Swamp," Biggs told Fox News Digital. "Federal overregulation takes a colossal toll on the U.S. economy. Thousands of new regulations go into effect every year, and there simply isn't enough manpower or existing technology to sift through previously issued regulations. AI technology is an effective tool that can save taxpayer dollars, benefit American business owners, and promote economic growth."

Learning graph generative models is a challenging task for deep learning and has wide applicability to a range of domains like chemistry, biology and social science. However current deep neural methods suffer from limited scalability: for a graph with $n$ nodes and $m$ edges, existing deep neural methods require $\Omega(n^2)$ complexity by building up the adjacency matrix. On the other hand, many real world graphs are actually sparse in the sense that $m\ll n^2$. Based on this, we develop a novel autoregressive model, named BiGG, that utilizes this sparsity to avoid generating the full adjacency matrix, and importantly reduces the graph generation time complexity to $O((n + m)\log n)$. Furthermore, during training this autoregressive model can be parallelized with $O(\log n)$ synchronization stages, which makes it much more efficient than other autoregressive models that require $\Omega(n)$. Experiments on several benchmarks show that the proposed approach not only scales to orders of magnitude larger graphs than previously possible with deep autoregressive graph generative models, but also yields better graph generation quality.

Least squares estimates are often not very satisfactory due to their poor out-of-sample performance, especially when the model is overly complex with a lot of features. We can attribute this to low bias and large variance in least squares estimates. Additionally, when we have a lot of features in our model, it is harder to explain the features with the strongest effect or what we call the Big Picture. Hence, we might want to choose fewer features in order to trade a worse in-sample variance for a better out-of-sample prediction. Regularization is a method to shrink or drop coefficients/parameters from a model by imposing a penalty on their size.

Related to the Perceptron and'Adaline', a Logistic Regression model is a linear model for binary classification. However, instead of minimizing a linear cost function such as the sum of squared errors (SSE) in Adaline, we minimize a sigmoid function, i.e., the logistic function: Here, p(y 1 \mid \mathbf{x}) is the conditional probability that a particular sample belongs to class 1 given its features \mathbf{x} . The logit function takes inputs in the range [0, 1] and transform them to values over the entire real number range. In contrast, the logistic function takes input values over the entire real number range and transforms them to values in the range [0, 1]. In other words, the logistic function is the inverse of the logit function, and it lets us predict the conditional probability that a certain sample belongs to class 1 (or class 0).
