In this paper, we investigate regularized online exponentially concave (abbr. exp-concave) optimization, in which each loss function consists of a time -varying exp-concave function and a fixed convex regularization. If the whole loss function is exp-concave, a classical method called online Newton step (ONS) enjoys an O ( d log T ) regret bound, where d is the dimensionality and T is the time horizon. However, in the regularized setting, the sum of an exp-concave function and a convex regularization is not necessarily an exp-concave function, which implies that ONS is not applicable. To address this problem, we propose the proximal online Newton step (ProxONS), and show that it can attain the same O ( d log T ) regret bound for any convex regularization. The main idea is to first perform an iteration of ONS with the exp-concave part in each loss function and then perform a proximal mapping with the regularization part. Furthermore, we demonstrate that by utilizing the standard online -to -batch conversion, our ProxONS can be extended to solve stochastic optimization with a regularized exp-concave objective, and enjoy an O ( d log T / T ) convergence rate with high probability. Experimental results on two real datasets verify the effectiveness of our ProxONS.
