arXiv:2607. 19334v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the problem of constructing a $K$-class classifier from the combination of $O(\log K)$ simple binary classifiers -- this is a natural paradigm to construct a sophisticated classifier in a distributed manner with each agent performing a relatively straightforward task.

arXiv:2609. 11918v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Generalization under distribution shift remains a core challenge in modern machine learning, yet existing learning bound theory is limited to narrow, idealized settings and is non-estimable from samples.

arXiv:2606. 06855v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: While algorithmic stability is a central tool for understanding generalization of learning algorithms, existing high-probability guarantees typically rely on uniform boundedness or sub-Gaussian/sub-Weibull tail assumptions, which can be overly restrictive for modern settings with heavy-tailed or unbounded losses.

arXiv:2607. 26838v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper we show that the generalization error of AdaBoost is $\Theta\big(\tfrac{d\ln(n\gamma^{2}/d)}{n\gamma^2}+\tfrac{\ln(1/\delta)}{n}\big)$, where $\gamma$ is the advantage guaranteed by the weak learner, $d$ is the VC-dimension of the class containing the weak hypotheses, $n$ is the sample size, and $\delta$ is the confidence parameter.

By Anay Mehrotra
The paper rigorously analyzes the statistical and learning-theoretic properties of adversarial training models for classification, focusing on empirical optimal partial transport. It establishes two central limit theorems—one centered at the expected empirical value and another at the population value with smoothing—by leveraging the uniqueness of optimal potentials across various optimal transport formulations and empirical process theory. In the binary setting, the authors prove uniqueness of the optimal potential via a connection to multi-marginal optimal transport, and as additional results they derive stability of the saddle point, sample complexity, and concentration bounds for generalization error.
