Tight Generalization Bound for AdaBoost

arXiv:2607. 26838v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper we show that the generalization error of AdaBoost is $\Theta\big(\tfrac{d\ln(n\gamma^{2}/d)}{n\gamma^2}+\tfrac{\ln(1/\delta)}{n}\big)$, where $\gamma$ is the advantage guaranteed by the weak learner, $d$ is the VC-dimension of the class containing the weak hypotheses, $n$ is the sample size, and $\delta$ is the confidence parameter.
