In this work, we give near-optimal learning algorithms for omniprediction, in both the online and offline settings. To begin, we give an oracle-efficient online learning algorithm that acheives $(L,H)$-omniprediction with $tilde{O}(sqrt{T log |H|})$ regret for any class of Lipschitz loss functions $L subseteq L_mathrm{Lip}$. Quite surprisingly, this regret bound matches the optimal regret for emph{minimization of a single loss function} (up to a $sqrt{log(T)}$ factor). Given this online algorithm, we develop an online-to-offline conversion that achieves near-optimal complexity across a number of measures. In particular, for all bounded loss functions within the class of Bounded Variation losses $L_mathrm{BV}$ (which include all convex, all Lipschitz, and all proper losses) and any (possibly-infinite) $H$, we obtain an offline learning algorithm that, leveraging an (offline) ERM oracle and $m$ samples from $D$, returns an efficient $(L_{mathrm{BV}},H,eps(m))$-omnipredictor for $eps(m)$ scaling near-linearly in the Rademacher complexity of $mathrm{Th} circ H$.<\/div>\n<p> \t<BR><br \/>\n <BR><\/BR><br \/>\n    Princewill Okoroafor, Robert Kleinberg, Michael P.
