arXiv:2309. 15769v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Recent advances in deep learning have highlighted the phenomenon of benign overfitting in overparameterized statistical models, sparking significant interest in understanding its foundations.
arXiv:2608. 07281v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper investigates the asymptotic behavior of the out-of-sample prediction risk of the high-dimensional ridgeless least-squares estimator when the feature dimension $p$ and the sample size $n$ grow proportionally.
arXiv:2601. 19791v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study grokking, the onset of generalization long after overfitting, in a classical ridge regression setting.
arXiv:2604. 08625v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We develop a theoretical framework for generalization in the interpolating regime of statistical learning.
arXiv:2303. 08777v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Cross-validation is one of the most widely used tools for risk estimation and model selection in statistics and machine learning, yet its theoretical properties when embedded in a learning procedure remain insufficiently understood.
arXiv:2406. 13944v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: This paper establishes the generalization error of pooled min-$\ell_2$-norm interpolation in transfer learning, where data from diverse distributions are available.
arXiv:2509. 17251v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing theory suggests that for linear regression problems categorized by capacity and source conditions, gradient descent (GD) is always minimax optimal, while both ridge regression and online stochastic gradient descent (SGD) are polynomially suboptimal for certain categories of such problems.
arXiv:2603. 28956v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The minimum-norm interpolator (MNI) framework has recently attracted considerable attention as a tool for understanding generalization in overparameterized models, such as neural networks.
arXiv:2607. 07735v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sparse precision matrix estimation provides an interpretable and computationally efficient framework for modeling conditional dependencies in high-dimensional, low-sample-size data.
arXiv:2607. 21773v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we propose and study a robust variant of the smart predict-then-optimize approach that accounts for prediction shifts due to disturbance in the covariate feature space.
arXiv:2608. 01032v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Training error is what we can observe on a training set; test error is the quantity we actually care about.
arXiv:2606. 01521v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A central problem in machine learning is that models can achieve near-perfect training performance while generalizing substantially less well to unseen examples.
arXiv:2608. 17573v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: In high-dimensional online prediction, the best predictor may depend on only a few features, so regret should scale with sparsity rather than the ambient dimension.
