Sequential operator learning under dependent data

The paper presents time‑uniform self‑normalized concentration bounds for stochastic processes in Hilbert spaces with vector‑valued noise, enabling regression‑error guarantees for both linear and nonlinear parametric operators. These results apply to possibly infinite‑dimensional inputs and outputs without requiring independence or mixing assumptions, and are derived in the context of sequentially collected, dependent data such as adaptive experimental design and dynamical‑system modelling.

The Sample Complexity of Learning Lipschitz Operators with respect to Gaussian Measures

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.
