This paper focuses on online multi-group learning, where a learner must predict well for multiple subpopulations or groups within a large dataset. The groups can be defined by demographics or other attributes. Unlike previous work, this study considers scenarios where the number of groups is too large to enumerate explicitly, so algorithms need to access groups through an optimization oracle. The researchers design algorithms that achieve sublinear regret in various settings, including independent and identically distributed data, adversarial smoothed context distributions, and transductive learning with adversarial noise.

Imagine you’re trying to predict what people will do based on their age, gender, or other characteristics. This paper looks at how to make predictions for many different groups within a large dataset. The groups can be defined by demographics like age, gender, or even zip code. Unlike previous research, this study considers situations where there are too many groups to count, so algorithms need to find the right groups indirectly. The researchers design new ways to do this that work well in different scenarios.
