The Sample Complexity of Learning Lipschitz Operators with respect to Gaussian Measures

The paper investigates how many linear samples are needed to learn Lipschitz operators under Gaussian measures. It establishes both lower and upper bounds on the Hermite polynomial approximation error and shows that the minimal worst‑case error cannot converge algebraically with the number of samples. However, if the covariance operator of the Gaussian measure decays rapidly, convergence rates arbitrarily close to any algebraic rate can be achieved.

Resolution-Independent Analysis of Encoder--Decoder Operator Learning via Limiting Kernels

The paper studies operator learning on function spaces using encoder–decoder architectures. It shows that as input and output resolutions grow, the induced kernels converge to a limiting kernel, enabling regularity assumptions independent of resolution. The authors derive upper and lower bounds for regularized stochastic gradient descent, extend the analysis to neural networks via the limiting neural tangent kernel, and provide error bounds and complexity guarantees for various kernel and encoding constructions.

A Closed-Form Formula for Consistent Lipschitz Regression on Metric Spaces with Sparse Neural Network Realizations

arXiv:2609. 03129v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Several classical machine-learning methods, such as KRRs and SVRs, are both computationally and analytically tractable since their estimators either admit closed-form expressions or are obtained by minimizing convex training objectives; neither feature is generally available for deep neural networks.
