Abstract:

This paper introduces \textit{online bilevel optimization} in which a sequence of time-varying bilevel problems is revealed one after the other. We extend the known regret bounds for single-level online algorithms to the bilevel setting. Specifically, we provide new notions of \textit{bilevel regret}, develop an online alternating time-averaged gradient method that is capable of leveraging smoothness, and give regret bounds in terms of the path-length of the inner and outer minimizer sequences.
