VC dimension of full-dimensional closed polyhedral cone in $\mathbb R^d$

Consider a fixed set of vectors $\{x_i\}_{i\in[n]}$ in $\mathbb R^d$ and closed polyhedral cone $C = \{w \in \mathbb R^d : w^\top x_i \geq 0, \forall i \in [n]\}$ with full dimension i.e. $C$ contains ...

Upper bound on VC-dimension of partitioned class

Fix $n,k\in \mathbb{N}_+$. Let $\mathcal{H}$ be a set of functions from $\mathbb{R}^n$ to $\mathbb{R}$ with finite VC-dimension $d\in \mathbb{N}$. Let $\mathcal{H}_k$ denote the set of maps of the ...

Rademacher complexity for a family of bounded, nondecreasing functions?

Let $\{\phi_k\}_{k=1}^K$ be a family of functions mapping from an interval $[a, b]$ to $[-1, 1]$. That is, $\phi_k \colon[ a,b] \to [-1, 1]$ are nondecreasing maps on some finite interval $[a, b] \...

Upper bounding VC dimension of an indicator function class

I would like to upper bound the VC dimension of the function class $ F$ defined as follows: $$ F := \left\{ (x,t) \mapsto \mathbb{1} \left( c_Q\min_{q \in Q} {\|x-q \|}_1 - t > 0 \right) \; | \; Q ...

VC dimension of axis-parallel boxes on the torus

First the basic definitions: Let $H$ be a family of sets, and let $P$ be a set of points. Then $H$ is said to shatter $P$ if $\{ h \cap P:~h \in H\}=2^P$, that is, if every subset of $P$ can be ...

VC dimension of cone-restricted linear classifiers

Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a pointed, salient cone in $\mathbb{R}^d$. We may also assume that $\mathcal{C}$ is full-dimensional. Consider the set of binary classifiers $$\mathcal{H} = \{\boldsymbol{x}\...

What is the shatter coefficient / VC - dimension of some hypothesis set?

Let $H:=\{h:\mathbb{N}_0^n \rightarrow \{0,1\}| h(x_1,\cdots,x_n) = \mathbb{1}_0(\sum_{i\in I}{x_i}-\sum_{j \notin I}{x_j}) \text{ for some } I \subset \{1,\cdots,n\}\}$ where $\mathbb{1}$ is the ...

"Separated" version of Sauer's lemma on VC classes

Sauer's lemma, a well-known result in computational complexity theory, learning theory, and combinatorics, states the following: Let $\Phi$ be a collection of subsets of a set $U$, and assume that ...

Vertex cover for hamming graphs representing sets of bounded VC dimension

Let $S$ be a set of binary vectors (in $\lbrace 0,1 \rbrace^m $) whose VC dimension is $d$. Let $H$ be the Hamming graph generated from this set where each node represents a binary vector and two ...
