Statistically Near-Optimal Hypothesis Selection

no code implementations17 Aug 2021 Olivier Bousquet, Mark Braverman, Klim Efremenko, Gillat Kol, Shay Moran

We derive an optimal $2$-approximation learning strategy for the Hypothesis Selection problem, outputting $q$ such that $\mathsf{TV}(p, q) \leq2 \cdot opt + \eps$, with a (nearly) optimal sample complexity of~$\tilde O(\log n/\epsilon^2)$.

Non-parametric Binary regression in metric spaces with KL loss

no code implementations19 Oct 2020 Ariel Avital, Klim Efremenko, Aryeh Kontorovich, David Toplin, Bo Waggoner

We propose a non-parametric variant of binary regression, where the hypothesis is regularized to be a Lipschitz function taking a metric space to [0, 1] and the loss is logarithmic.

Fast and Bayes-consistent nearest neighbors

no code implementations7 Oct 2019 Klim Efremenko, Aryeh Kontorovich, Moshe Noivirt

Research on nearest-neighbor methods tends to focus somewhat dichotomously either on the statistical or the computational aspects -- either on, say, Bayes consistency and rates of convergence or on techniques for speeding up the proximity search.
