arXiv:2606. 14268v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We develop a statistical learning theory for gradient boosting applied to the estimation of covariate-dependent Generalized Pareto (GP) distributions in the context of Peaks-over-Threshold modeling.
arXiv:2209. 01754v5 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The empirical risk minimization approach to data-driven decision making requires access to training data drawn under the same conditions as those that will be faced when the decision rule is deployed.
arXiv:2606. 19117v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Offline policy learning has received growing attention in causal inference.
arXiv:2604. 03146v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We study high-dimensional convex empirical risk minimization (ERM) under general non-Gaussian data designs.
arXiv:2605. 26000v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Stochastic gradient descent (SGD) is foundational to large-scale statistical learning and stochastic optimization.
arXiv:2608. 11544v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We propose CVaR-penalized Generative Particle Algorithm (CVaR-GPA), a robust, tail-agnostic algorithm for fine-tuning generative models to learn heavy-tailed distributions and capture extreme events, requiring no prior knowledge or estimation of the target's tail characteristics.
arXiv:2602. 02877v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This paper studies optimization for a family of problems termed $\textbf{compositional entropic risk minimization}$, in which each data's loss is formulated as a Log-Expectation-Exponential (Log-E-Exp) function.
arXiv:2606. 16257v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Sampling from high-dimensional, non-log-concave distributions with unnormalized densities is a fundamental challenge in machine learning, particularly when the exact gradient of the potential is unavailable and must be approximated via stochastic gradients that exhibit high variance under a fixed budget of gradient computations per iteration.
arXiv:2512. 22088v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The scaling law, a cornerstone of Large Language Model (LLM) development, predicts improvements in model performance with increasing computational resources.
arXiv:2606. 28573v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Modern machine learning models are trained by optimizing high-dimensional non-convex empirical risk functions.

arXiv:2608. 13133v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Distributional shifts arise when the target deployment environment differs from the source environment that generated the training data.
arXiv:2602. 05533v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study conditional generation in diffusion models under hard constraints, where generated samples must satisfy prescribed events with probability one.
