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:2510. 12249v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In performative learning, the data distribution reacts to the deployed model - for example, because strategic users adapt their features to game it - which creates a more complex dynamic than in classical supervised learning.

arXiv:2607. 00207v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop a framework for analyzing the learning dynamics of $\ell_2$-adversarial training of single-index models on Gaussian mixtures in the high-dimensional limit under streaming stochastic gradient descent (SGD).

arXiv:2601. 19791v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study grokking, the onset of generalization long after overfitting, in a classical ridge regression setting.

arXiv:2601. 16041v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In constrained stochastic optimization, one expects that restricting the feasible set, provided it still contains the true parameter, should not increase the statistical risk of the corresponding projection estimator.

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:2603. 04895v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Overparameterized ML models, including neural networks, typically induce underdetermined training objectives with multiple global minima.

arXiv:2607. 02681v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Integrating information across related tasks can improve estimation and prediction in transfer, multi-task, and federated learning, but contamination and heterogeneity make robust borrowing challenging.
