arXiv:2608. 04686v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study distributionally robust PAC learning for the $0$--$1$-loss, where adversarial perturbations of the data distribution are constrained by a Cressie--Read divergence of order $k>1$ and radius $\rho\geq 0$.
We study distributionally robust PAC learning for the $0$--$1$-loss, where adversarial perturbations of the data distribution are constrained by a Cressie--Read divergence of order $k>1$ and radius $ρ\geq 0$. For hypothesis classes with VC dimension $d$, we establish realizable and agnostic sample-complexity bounds tight up to constant and logarithmic factors, respectively; ordinary empirical risk minimization attains both rates up to logarithmic factors.
arXiv:2608. 02538v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: This paper is concerned with one-bit mean estimation, where each independent sample is represented by a single binary message.
arXiv:2509. 03734v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the hypothesis selection problem, we are given sample and query access to finite set of candidate distributions (hypotheses), $\mathcal{H} = \{H_1, \ldots, H_n\}$, and samples from an unknown distribution $P$, both over a domain $\mathcal{X}$.
arXiv:2504. 19952v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We present two general lower bounds for stopping times of sequential tests between arbitrary composite nulls $\mathcal P$ and alternatives $\mathcal Q$.
arXiv:2606. 29331v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Scientific discovery via symbolic regression is often viewed as statistically and computationally intractable because the hypothesis space of expressions grows combinatorially with depth.
