Abstract (arXiv)

We prove that the optimal expected mistake bound of online learning a function class H by a randomized proper learning algorithm is O(mathttL(H) log T), where mathttL(H) is the Littlestone dimension of H and T is the time horizon. Our result improves upon the previously best known bound of O(mathttL(H) log6 T) given by Daskalakis and Golowich (STOC 2022), and is optimal up to a universal constant for worst-case classes.
