Limits of spectral learning under noise

Learning functional relationships from noisy data is a central problem in scientific inference. Spectral methods approximate unknown functions by expanding them in a basis and estimating the corresponding coefficients from data, but the stability of these coefficients under noise remains poorly understood.

Spectrally Deconfounded Gradient Boosting

arXiv:2607. 09371v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Flexible machine-learning methods can be sensitive to hidden confounding: they may learn associations induced by unobserved confounders rather than stable signals.

Fixed-Gaussian Spectral Algorithms: Minimax Optimal Rates for Misspecified Learning and Transfer

arXiv:2501. 10870v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The principal objective of this work is twofold within nonparametric regression settings: (1) to establish the minimax optimal convergence rates for fixed-bandwidth Gaussian kernel spectral algorithms when the true regression function resides in a Sobolev space, and (2) to apply Gaussian spectral algorithms for achieving robust and adaptive transfer learning under concept shift.
