Size-Independent Sample Complexity of Neural Networks

Ohad Shamir (Weizman Institute)
E18-304

Abstract: I'll describe new bounds on the sample complexity of deep neural networks, based on the norms of the parameter matrices at each layer. In particular, we show how certain norms lead to the first explicit bounds which are fully independent of the network size (both depth and width), and are therefore applicable to arbitrarily…

Dynamic Incentive-aware Learning: Robust Pricing in Contextual Auctions

Adel Javanmard (USC)
E18-304

Abstract: Motivated by pricing in ad exchange markets, we consider the problem of robust learning of reserve prices against strategic buyers in repeated contextual second-price auctions. Buyers’ valuations for an item depend on the context that describes the item. However, the seller is not aware of the relationship between the context and buyers’ valuations, i.e.,…

Fitting a putative manifold to noisy data

Hariharan Narayanan (Tata Institute of Fundamental Research, Mumbai)
E18-304

Abstract: We give a solution to the following question from manifold learning. Suppose data belonging to a high dimensional Euclidean space is drawn independently, identically distributed from a measure supported on a low dimensional twice differentiable embedded compact manifold M, and is corrupted by a small amount of i.i.d gaussian noise. How can we produce…
