The paper investigates the theoretical limits of transfer learning, demonstrating that careful selection of transferable information and its dependence on target problems is crucial. It establishes that the degree of probabilistic change in a transfer-learning algorithm imposes an upper bound on achievable improvement. These findings extend the algorithmic search framework to a broad class of learning tasks involving transfer.

The paper introduces a transfer learning framework for structured matrix estimation when both the ambient dimension and the intrinsic representation grow over time. It models the target parameter as an embedded source component plus low‑rank innovations and sparse edits, and proposes an anchored alternating projection estimator that preserves the transferred subspace while estimating only the new components. Deterministic error bounds are derived that separate target noise, representation growth, and source estimation error, showing improved rates when rank and sparsity increments are small, and the framework is applied to Markov transition matrix estimation and structured covariance estimation with theoretical guarantees and empirical validation.
