The sample complexity of level set approximation
We study the problem of approximating the level set of an unknown function by sequentially querying its values. We introduce a family of algorithms called Bisect and Approximate through which we reduce the level set approximation problem to a local function approximation problem. We then show how this approach leads to rate-optimal sample complexity guarantees for H{\"o}lder functions, and we investigate how such rates improve when additional smoothness or other structural assumptions hold true.
