Title
Exponential convergence rates in classification
Abstract
Let (X,Y) be a random couple, X being an observable instance and Y∈ {–1,1} being a binary label to be predicted based on an observation of the instance. Let (Xi, Yi), i=1, . . . , n be training data consisting of n independent copies of (X,Y). Consider a real valued classifier ${\hat{f}_{n}}$ that minimizes the following penalized empirical risk $$\frac{1}{n}\sum\limits_{i=1}^n \ell(Y_{i}f(X_{i})) + \lambda\|Let (X,Y) be a random couple, X being an observable instance and Y∈ {–1,1} being a binary label to be predicted based on an observation of the instance.
