arXiv:2608. 14102v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We consider the problem of sequential prediction of an $m$-ary sequence, where at each epoch, (i) the environment selects an outcome from an $m$-ary alphabet, (ii) the learner selects a probability distribution over the same alphabet (unaware of the outcome generated by the environment), and finally, (iii) the learner incurs a cost that depends on the probability assigned to the outcome.

Data- and Variance-dependent Regret Bounds for Online Tabular MDPs

arXiv:2602. 01903v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This work studies online episodic tabular Markov decision processes (MDPs) with known transitions and develops best-of-both-worlds algorithms that achieve refined data-dependent regret bounds in the adversarial regime and variance-dependent regret bounds in the stochastic regime.

Bagging Robustly Learns VC Classes with Linear Sample Complexity

We revisit the problem of learning predictors robust to adversarial examples at test-time. We prove that VC classes are adversarially robustly learnable with sample complexity linear in the VC dimension $d$, providing an exponential improvement over the previous upper bound of Montasser, Hanneke, and Srebro (2019).
