arXiv:2509. 20848v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the classic point location problem, one is given an arbitrary dataset $X \subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of $n$ points with query access to an unknown halfspace $f : \mathbb{R}^d \to \{0,1\}$, and the goal is to learn the label of every point in $X$.

arXiv:2605. 25303v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The $2 \rightarrow q$ norm of a matrix $X \in \mathbb{R}^{n \times d}$ is defined as $\lVert X \rVert_{2 \rightarrow q} = \sup_{\lVert v \rVert_2 = 1} \lVert Xv \rVert_q$.
arXiv:2606. 19411v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Selecting a small, diverse, high-quality subset from a massive pool of candidates is a recurring primitive in modern machine learning -- data curation and coreset selection for training and fine-tuning large models, active-learning batch acquisition, prompt and exemplar selection for in-context learning, retrieval diversification, and experimental design.
The paper investigates how many linear samples are needed to learn Lipschitz operators under Gaussian measures. It establishes both lower and upper bounds on the Hermite polynomial approximation error and shows that the minimal worst‑case error cannot converge algebraically with the number of samples. However, if the covariance operator of the Gaussian measure decays rapidly, convergence rates arbitrarily close to any algebraic rate can be achieved.
