The paper revisits median‑of‑means estimation from a deterministic optimization perspective, introducing a family of block‑Lp estimators (for 0 < p ≤ 1) that achieve robust learning with heavy‑tailed and adversarially corrupted data. It shows that any convex block M‑estimator cannot attain the trimmed‑block oracle constant, while the nonconvex block‑Lp family provides finite‑sample robustness bounds that approach this oracle constant as p decreases. The authors also prove that the block‑Lp objectives have a benign landscape—every local minimum is close to the true parameter—and combine these results with block‑level concentration to obtain sub‑Gaussian deviation bounds under finite 2+δ moments, extending to high‑dimensional robust mean estimation and sparse regression.

arXiv:2607. 10618v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We consider the recovery of a pair of sparse vectors from a limited number of nonlinear observations of their superposition: $y_i=g(\inner{\ba_i}{\bPhi\bw^\ast+\bPsi\bz^\ast})+e_i$, $i=1,\dots,m$, with $m\ll n$, incoherent orthonormal bases $\bPhi,\bPsi$, a scalar link $g$, and noise $e_i$ that may be heavy-tailed or contaminated.
