arXiv:2510. 12249v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: In performative learning, the data distribution reacts to the deployed model - for example, because strategic users adapt their features to game it - which creates a more complex dynamic than in classical supervised learning.

arXiv:2607. 15450v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Self-distillation (SD) is typically studied when the student is retrained on the teacher's original training inputs.

arXiv:2601. 19791v4 Announce Type: replace Abstract: We study grokking, the onset of generalization long after overfitting, in a classical ridge regression setting.

arXiv:2406. 04425v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A fundamental problem in machine learning is understanding the effect of early stopping on the parameters obtained and the generalization capabilities of the model.

arXiv:2509. 17251v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Existing theory suggests that for linear regression problems categorized by capacity and source conditions, gradient descent (GD) is always minimax optimal, while both ridge regression and online stochastic gradient descent (SGD) are polynomially suboptimal for certain categories of such problems.

arXiv:2606. 01292v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Teacher-Student Knowledge Transfer (KT) is ubiquitous in modern machine learning, ranging from classical model compression via Knowledge Distillation (KD) to the emergent phenomenon of Weak-to-Strong (W2S) generalization.
