Optimal Sample Complexity of Contrastive Learning

ICLR 2024spotlight

Contrastive learning is a highly successful technique for learning representations of data from labeled tuples, specifying the distance relations within the tuple. We study the sample complexity of contrastive learning, i.e. the minimum number of labeled tuples sufficient for getting high generaliza…

A graph-theoretic approach to multitasking

NeurIPS 2017oral

A key feature of neural network architectures is their ability to support the simultaneous interaction among large numbers of units in the learning and processing of representations. However, how the richness of such interactions trades off against the ability of a network to simultaneously carry ou…

Submultiplicative Glivenko-Cantelli and Uniform Convergence of Revenues

NeurIPS 2017spotlight

In this work we derive a variant of the classic Glivenko-Cantelli Theorem, which asserts uniform convergence of the empirical Cumulative Distribution Function (CDF) to the CDF of the underlying distribution. Our variant allows for tighter convergence bounds for extreme values of the CDF. We apply o…
