We consider a PAC-Bayes analysis of stochastic optimization algorithms, and devise a new SGDA algorithm inspired from our bounds. Our algorithm learns a data-dependent sampling scheme along with model parameters, which may be seen as assigning a probability to each training point. We demonstrate tha
We give sharper bounds for uniformly stable randomized algorithms in a PAC-Bayesian framework, which improve the existing results by up to a factor of $\sqrt{n}$ (ignoring a log factor), where $n$ is the sample size. The key idea is to bound the moment generating function of the generalization gap u…
We investigate the challenge of multi-output learning, where the goal is to learn a vector-valued function based on a supervised data set. This includes a range of important problems in Machine Learning including multi-target regression, multi-class classification and multi-label classification. We…
We consider classification in the presence of class-dependent asymmetric label noise with unknown noise probabilities. In this setting, identifiability conditions are known, but additional assumptions were shown to be required for finite sample rates, and so far only the parametric rate has been obt…
