Compression and generalization are fundamentally related through Solomonoff induction and the minimum description length principle (MDL), which predict that simpler models generalize better when data arises from low-complexity…

This paper addresses the problem of an efficient predictive density estimation for the density $q(\|y-\theta\|^2)$ of $Y$ based on $X \sim p(\|x-\theta\|^2)$ for $y, x, \theta \in \mathbb{R}^d$. The chosen criteria are integrated $L_1$ loss…

We consider nonparametric regression with functional covariates, that is, they are elements of an infinite-dimensional Hilbert space. A locally polynomial estimator is constructed, where an orthonormal basis and various tuning parameters…

Consider a regression problem where the learner is given a large collection of $d$-dimensional data points, but can only query a small subset of the real-valued labels. How many queries are needed to obtain a $1+\epsilon$ relative error…

We develop a framework using Hilbert spaces as a proxy to analyze PAC learning problems with structural properties. We consider a joint Hilbert space incorporating the relation between the true label and the predictor under a joint…

This paper studies robust nonparametric regression, in which an adversarial attacker can modify the values of up to $q$ samples from a training dataset of size $N$. Our initial solution is an M-estimator based on Huber loss minimization.…

Motivated by small bandwidth asymptotics for kernel-based semiparametric estimators in econometrics, this paper establishes Gaussian approximation results for high-dimensional fixed-order $U$-statistics whose kernels depend on the sample…

We present a framework for performing efficient regression in general metric spaces. Roughly speaking, our regressor predicts the value at a new point by computing a Lipschitz extension --- the smoothest function consistent with the…

This paper considers point and interval estimation of the $\ell_q$ loss of an estimator in high-dimensional linear regression with random design. We establish the minimax rate for estimating the $\ell_{q}$ loss and the minimax expected…

We consider the regression model with errors-in-variables where we observe $n$ i.i.d. copies of $(Y,Z)$ satisfying $Y=f(X)+\xi, Z=X+\sigma\epsilon$, involving independent and unobserved random variables $X,\xi,\epsilon$. The density $g$ of…

The logistic regression estimator is known to inflate the magnitude of its coefficients if the sample size $n$ is small, the dimension $p$ is (moderately) large or the signal-to-noise ratio $1/\sigma$ is large (probabilities of observing a…

We study ``selective'' or ``conditional'' classification problems under an agnostic setting. Classification tasks commonly focus on modeling the relationship between features and categories that captures the vast majority of data. In…

We prove risk bounds for binary classification in high-dimensional settings when the sample size is allowed to be smaller than the dimensionality of the training set observations. In particular, we prove upper bounds for both 'compressive…

We consider the problem of subset selection for $\ell_{p}$ subspace approximation, that is, to efficiently find a \emph{small} subset of data points such that solving the problem optimally for this subset gives a good approximation to…

Regularized linear regression under the $\ell_1$ penalty, such as the Lasso, has been shown to be effective in variable selection and sparse modeling. The sampling distribution of an $\ell_1$-penalized estimator $\hat{\beta}$ is hard to…

Recently, linear regression models incorporating an optimal transport (OT) loss have been explored for applications such as supervised unmixing of spectra, music transcription, and mass spectrometry. However, these task-specific approaches…

We develop a general assumption-lean framework for constructing uniformly valid confidence sets for functionals defined by moment equalities, referred to as $Z$-functionals. Our approach combines self-normalized statistics with a test…

This paper studies empirical risk minimization (ERM) problems for large-scale datasets and incorporates the idea of adaptive sample size methods to improve the guaranteed convergence bounds for first-order stochastic and deterministic…

Predictive models are being increasingly used to support consequential decision making at the individual level in contexts such as pretrial bail and loan approval. As a result, there is increasing social and legal pressure to provide…

Learning from a label distribution has achieved promising results on ordinal regression tasks such as facial age and head pose estimation wherein, the concept of adaptive label distribution learning (ALDL) has drawn lots of attention…
