In this paper we study minimax and adaptation rates in general isotonic regression. For uniform deterministic and random designs in $[0,1]^d$ with $d\ge 2$ and $N(0,1)$ noise, the minimax rate for the $\ell_2$ risk is known to be bounded…

Consider the standard Gaussian linear regression model $Y=X\theta+\epsilon$, where $Y\in R^n$ is a response vector and $ X\in R^{n*p}$ is a design matrix. Numerous work have been devoted to building efficient estimators of $\theta$ when $p$…

Modern neural networks are often operated in a strongly overparametrized regime: they comprise so many parameters that they can interpolate the training set, even if actual labels are replaced by purely random ones. Despite this, they…
