arXiv:2602. 16568v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Sparse recovery is among the most well-studied problems in learning theory and high-dimensional statistics.
arXiv:2609. 20883v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Despite the widespread use and success of generative AI techniques today, theoretical guarantees on learning a distribution supported in $d$ dimensions from $n$ samples degrade as $O(n^{-1/\Theta(d)})$, though shown to be minimax optimal.

arXiv:2606. 15219v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this work, we tackle the following question: Can neural networks trained with gradient-based methods achieve the optimal computational-statistical tradeoff in learning Gaussian single-index models?
We study the problem of \emph{adversarially robust} PAC learning. In this framework, the learner observes independent samples from an unknown distribution over $\mathcal{X} \times \{0,1\}$, as in clas...
arXiv:2607. 22889v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Learning the natural parameters $z \in \mathbb{R}^n$ of discrete distributions $\mu_z$ from independent samples constrained to a subset $S \subseteq \{0,1\}^n$ is a foundational challenge in high-dimensional statistics.
arXiv:2606. 08218v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Compositional priors describe the generic properties of layered functions in deep Bayesian models, where deep neural networks with random weights are a canonical example.
arXiv:2607. 24732v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Motivated by learning from heterogeneous and overlapping data providers, we study a stylized model of distribution learning from restricted conditional samples.

The paper investigates how many data samples per domain are needed for effective learning across multiple domains. It derives criteria from learning bounds that reveal an inverse linear relationship between the number of training domains and the required samples per domain, offering theoretical guidance for dataset adequacy and construction. The study also establishes a close link between in-domain learning and out-of-domain generalization through new generalization bounds.
arXiv:2606. 11469v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the task of density estimation, where we hope to accurately estimate a probability density from $n$ samples.
arXiv:2407. 00966v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In traditional models of supervised learning, the goal of a learner-- given examples from an arbitrary joint distribution on $\mathbb{R}^d \times \{\pm 1\}$-- is to output a hypothesis that is competitive (to within $\epsilon$) of the best fitting concept from some class.
