The paper introduces a pooling‑ridge estimation method for functional linear regression that handles data observed at discrete times, ranging from sparse to dense designs. By combining pooling strategies with RKHS‑based techniques, the authors achieve minimax‑optimal prediction risk for both scalar‑on‑function and function‑on‑function models. The study identifies distinct phase transitions in convergence behavior, with up to three transitions for function‑on‑function regression, and validates the approach through simulations and real data examples.

The paper introduces a learning-based surrogate approach for stochastic optimization problems where uncertainty depends on the decision, modeled via a nonparametric regression. It constructs a surrogate that embeds iteratively updated Jacobian estimates, using an adaptive random design that focuses sampling near the current iterate to achieve dimension‑independent convergence of the Jacobian estimates. The resulting learning‑based stochastic prox‑linear (L‑SPL) algorithm demonstrates nonasymptotic convergence rates and outperforms existing methods in sample efficiency and objective value in numerical experiments.

The paper introduces an online generalized-sparsity-constrained regression framework that addresses key challenges in online sparse regression, such as dynamic regularization, memory usage, and real-time computation. It proposes an efficient online hard‑thresholding algorithm that performs closed‑form updates using only summary statistics, achieving global convergence at optimal statistical rates when the projection set is overparameterized. Numerical experiments show the method consistently outperforms existing alternatives in online cardinality‑constrained linear regression and low‑rank matrix sensing.
