Known relations between mutual information and covering number?
This is a question about statistical learning theory. Consider a hypothesis class $\mathcal{F}$, parameterized by real vectors $w \in \mathbb{R}^p$. Suppose I have a data distribution $D \sim \mu$ and ...

Comparison of concentrations of different $L^p$-norms of (sub) Gaussian distributions
It's well-known that the Euclidean $2$-norm of subgaussian random vectors concentrates in high dimensions, e.g. when $X \sim \mathcal{N}(0,I_n),$ (or in general $X$ is subgaussian with independent co-...

Equivalence of score function expressions in SDE-based generative modeling
I am studying the paper "Score-Based Generative Modeling through Stochastic Differential Equations" (arXiv:2011.13456) by Yang et al. The authors use the following loss function (Equation 7 ...

What are some beginner's references on algebraically structured (statistical) models, and their connection with group actions and Fourier transform?
I asked this question on Cross Validated a few days ago, but didn't really get a favorable response, so asking here to see if I get any.
I'm looking at the description of a short-term position in ...

Constrained random sampling from partitioned sets with quotas
Let $D$ be a finite set, $\mathcal{P} = \{D_{i,j}\}_{(i,j) \in I \times J}$ a partition of $D$, $N: J \to \mathbb{N}$ a quota function, and $k \in \mathbb{N}^+$. A subset $F \subseteq D$ is considered ...

How to calculate the unifrom entropy or VC dimension of the following class of functions?
When dealing with U process I meet with such a uniform entropy to calculate.
For any $\eta>0$, function class $\mathcal{F}$ containing functions $f=\left(f_{i, j}\right)_{1 \leq i \neq j \leq n}: \...

What is the number of iterations needed for the message passing algorithm to converge when applied to an acyclic factor graph?
I understand that the message passing algorithm (Belief Propagation algorithm), when applied to a factor graph consists in an exchange in messages between the factor nodes and the variable nodes, ...

Some new questions on Rademacher complexity
For $A\subset R^n$,$A=(a_1,a_2,\dots, a_n)$, $\sigma_i$ are Rademacher random variable.
Is $|\mathbb{E}_\sigma \inf_{a\in A}\sum_{i=1}^n\sigma_ia_i| \le |\mathbb{E}_\sigma \sup_{a\in A}\sum_{i=1}^n\...
