Sum-max Submodular Bandits

no code implementations10 Nov 2023 Stephen Pasteris, Alberto Rumi, Fabio Vitale, Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi

Many online decision-making problems correspond to maximizing a sequence of submodular functions.

Fast and Effective GNN Training with Linearized Random Spanning Trees

no code implementations7 Jun 2023 Francesco Bonchi, Claudio Gentile, Francesco Paolo Nerini, André Panisson, Fabio Vitale

We present a new effective and scalable framework for training GNNs in node classification tasks, based on the effective resistance, a powerful tool solidly rooted in graph theory.

Adversarial Online Collaborative Filtering

no code implementations11 Feb 2023 Stephen Pasteris, Fabio Vitale, Mark Herbster, Claudio Gentile, Andre' Panisson

We investigate the problem of online collaborative filtering under no-repetition constraints, whereby users need to be served content in an online fashion and a given user cannot be recommended the same content item more than once.

Collaborative Filtering

A Gang of Adversarial Bandits

no code implementations NeurIPS 2021 Mark Herbster, Stephen Pasteris, Fabio Vitale, Massimiliano Pontil

Users are in a social network and the learner is aided by a-priori knowledge of the strengths of the social links between all pairs of users.

Recommendation Systems

Online Learning of Facility Locations

no code implementations6 Jul 2020 Stephen Pasteris, Ting He, Fabio Vitale, Shiqiang Wang, Mark Herbster

In this paper, we provide a rigorous theoretical investigation of an online learning version of the Facility Location problem which is motivated by emerging problems in real-world applications.

Flattening a Hierarchical Clustering through Active Learning

no code implementations NeurIPS 2019 Fabio Vitale, Anand Rajagopalan, Claudio Gentile

We investigate active learning by pairwise similarity over the leaves of trees originating from hierarchical clustering procedures.

Active Learning Clustering

Correlation Clustering with Adaptive Similarity Queries

1 code implementation NeurIPS 2019 Marco Bressan, Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi, Andrea Paudice, Fabio Vitale

In this work we investigate correlation clustering as an active learning problem: each similarity score can be learned by making a query, and the goal is to minimise both the disagreements and the total number of queries.

MaxHedge: Maximising a Maximum Online

no code implementations28 Oct 2018 Stephen Pasteris, Fabio Vitale, Kevin Chan, Shiqiang Wang, Mark Herbster

We introduce a new online learning framework where, at each trial, the learner is required to select a subset of actions from a given known action set.

Online Reciprocal Recommendation with Theoretical Performance Guarantees

no code implementations NeurIPS 2018 Fabio Vitale, Nikos Parotsidis, Claudio Gentile

A reciprocal recommendation problem is one where the goal of learning is not just to predict a user's preference towards a passive item (e. g., a book), but to recommend the targeted user on one side another user from the other side such that a mutual interest between the two exists.

On Pairwise Clustering with Side Information

no code implementations19 Jun 2017 Stephen Pasteris, Fabio Vitale, Claudio Gentile, Mark Herbster

We measure performance not based on the recovery of the hidden similarity function, but instead on how well we classify each item.

Clustering Inductive Bias

On the Troll-Trust Model for Edge Sign Prediction in Social Networks

no code implementations1 Jun 2016 Géraud Le Falher, Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi, Claudio Gentile, Fabio Vitale

In the problem of edge sign prediction, we are given a directed graph (representing a social network), and our task is to predict the binary labels of the edges (i. e., the positive or negative nature of the social relationships).

Even Trolls Are Useful: Efficient Link Classification in Signed Networks

no code implementations29 Feb 2016 Géraud Le Falher, Fabio Vitale

We address the problem of classifying the links of signed social networks given their full structural topology.

A Linear Time Active Learning Algorithm for Link Classification

no code implementations NeurIPS 2012 Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi, Claudio Gentile, Fabio Vitale, Giovanni Zappella

We provide a theoretical analysis within this model, showing that we can achieve an optimal (to whithin a constant factor) number of mistakes on any graph $G = (V, E)$ such that $|E|$ is at least order of $|V|^{3/2}$ by querying at most order of $|V|^{3/2}$ edge labels.

Active Learning Classification +2

See the Tree Through the Lines: The Shazoo Algorithm

no code implementations NeurIPS 2011 Fabio Vitale, Nicolò Cesa-Bianchi, Claudio Gentile, Giovanni Zappella

Although it is known how to predict the nodes of an unweighted tree in a nearly optimal way, in the weighted case a fully satisfactory algorithm is not available yet.

On higher-order perceptron algorithms

no code implementations NeurIPS 2007 Claudio Gentile, Fabio Vitale, Cristian Brotto

A new algorithm for on-line learning linear-threshold functions is proposed which efficiently combines second-order statistics about the data with the logarithmic behavior" of multiplicative/dual-norm algorithms.
