Continuity of Kernel Mean Embeddings
Given some kernel $k: X \times X \to \mathbb{R}$ with RKHS $H_k$ we say that $k$ is characteristic on the space of signed Radon measures over $X$, denoted by $\mathcal{M}(X)$, if the kernel mean ...

Covering/Bracketing number of monotone functions on $\mathbb{R}$ with uniformly bounded derivatives
I am interested in the $\| \cdot \|_{\infty}$-norm bracketing number or covering number of some collection of distribution functions on $\mathbb{R}$.
Let $\mathcal{F}$ consist of all distribution ...

Representer theorem for a loss / functional of the form $L(h) := \sum_{i=1}^n (|h(x_i)-y_i|+t\|h\|)^2$
Let $K:X \times X \to \mathbb R$ be a (positive-definite) kernel and let $H$ be the induced reproducing kernel Hilbert space (RKHS). Fix $(x_1,y_1),\ldots,(x_n,y_n) \in X \times \mathbb R$. For $t \ge ...

Relation between minimizer of regularized risk & risk in statistical learning theory
In supervised machine learning, we typically take a Risk Minimization (RM) point of view when formulating a problem. So, what we typically solve for is the following:
$$ R^L(h) = \underset{h\in\...

Can we show equivalence of two distributions based on their statistics?
Let $p,q$ be two distributions on $\mathbb{R}^d$. Let $f:\mathbb{R}^d\times\mathbb{R}^d\rightarrow\mathbb{R}$. Under what conditions does $\mathbb{E}_{x\sim p}f(x,z)=\mathbb{E}_{x\sim q}f(x,z)\ \...

Extension of universal approximation theorem
Let $I_d:=[0,1]^d$ with $d\ge 2$. Define $C(I_d):=\{F: I_d\to\mathbb R \mbox{ is continuous}\}$ and
$$N(I_d):=\{F\in C(I_d): F(x)=\sum_{k=1}^n f_k(v_k\cdot x), \mbox{ where } n\ge 1 \mbox{ and } f_1,\...

Simple (?) question on inner product in reproducing kernel Hilbert space
I'm following the gentle introduction to Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces From Zero to Reproducing Kernel Hilbert Spaces in Twelve Pages or Less by Hal Daumé III. I believe the author fully ...

VC dimension, fat-shattering dimension, and other complexity measures, of a class BV functions
I wish to show that a function which is "essentially constant" (defined shortly) can't be a good classifier (machine learning). For this i need to estimate the "complexity" of such a class of ...

Packing number of Lipschitz functions
For some $L>0$ say ${\cal L}$ is the space of all $L-$Lipschitz functions mapping $(X,\rho) \rightarrow [0,1]$ where $(X,\rho)$ is a metric space.
For any $\alpha >0$ do we know of a ...

Covering number of Lipschitz functions
What do we know about the covering number of $L$-Lipschitz functions mapping say, $\mathbb{R}^n \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ for some $L >0$?
Only 2 results I have found so far are,
That the $\infty$-...
