In this paper, we study a new approach related to the convergence analysis of Ishikawa-type iterative models to a common fixed point of two non-expansive mappings in Banach spaces. The main novelty of our contribution lies in the so-called…

We study the problem of estimating a distribution over a finite alphabet from an i.i.d. sample, with accuracy measured in relative entropy (Kullback-Leibler divergence). While optimal bounds on the expected risk are known, high-probability…
