Scalable sequence models, such as Transformer variants and structured state-space models, often trade expressivity power for sequence-level parallelism, which enables efficient training. Here we examine the bounds on error and how error…

This paper considers the problem of testing whether there exists a solution satisfying certain non-negativity constraints to a linear system of equations. Importantly and in contrast to some prior work, we allow all parameters in the system…

Linear predictors form a rich class of hypotheses used in a variety of learning algorithms. We present a tight analysis of the empirical Rademacher complexity of the family of linear hypothesis classes with weight vectors bounded in…
