Precise Asymptotics of Bagging Regularized M-estimators

ICML 2026poster

We characterize the squared prediction risk of ensemble estimators obtained through subagging (subsample bootstrap aggregating) regularized M-estimators and construct a consistent estimator for the risk. Specifically, we consider a heterogeneous collection of M?1 regularized M-estimators, each train…

Phase transitions for the existence of unregularized M-estimators in single index models

ICML 2025poster

This paper studies phase transitions for the existence of unregularized M-estimators under proportional asymptotics where the sample size $n$ and feature dimension $p$ grow proportionally with $n/p \to \delta \in (1, \infty)$. We study the existence of M-estimators in single-index models where the r…

Estimating Generalization Performance Along the Trajectory of Proximal SGD in Robust Regression

NeurIPS 2024poster

This paper studies the generalization performance of iterates obtained by Gradient Descent (GD), Stochastic Gradient Descent (SGD) and their proximal variants in high-dimensional robust regression problems. The number of features is comparable to the sample size and errors may be heavy-tailed. We in…

Multinomial Logistic Regression: Asymptotic Normality on Null Covariates in High-Dimensions

NeurIPS 2023poster

This paper investigates the asymptotic distribution of the maximum-likelihood estimate (MLE) in multinomial logistic models in the high-dimensional regime where dimension and sample size are of the same order. While classical large-sample theory provides asymptotic normality of the MLE under certain…

Asymptotic normality and confidence intervals for derivatives of 2-layers neural network in the random features model

NeurIPS 2020poster

This paper studies two-layers Neural Networks (NN), where the first layer contains random weights, and the second layer is trained using Ridge regularization. This model has been the focus of numerous recent works, showing that despite its simplicity, it captures some of the empirically observed beh…
