Let $a_{1},...,a_{n}, b_{1},...,b_{n}$ be random variables in some (non-commutative) probability space, such that $\{a_{1}, ..., a_{n} \}$ is free from $\{b_{1}, ..., b_{n} \}$. We show how the joint distribution of the $n$-tuple $(a_{1}…

The spectra of random feature matrices provide essential information on the conditioning of the linear system used in random feature regression problems and are thus connected to the consistency and generalization of random feature models.…
