Sharp oracle inequalities for aggregation of affine estimators
仿射估计量聚合的锐利预言不等式
We consider the problem of combining a (possibly uncountably infinite) set of affine estimators in nonparametric regression model with heteroscedastic Gaussian noise. Focusing on the exponentially weighted aggregate, we prove a PAC-Bayesian type inequality that leads to sharp oracle inequalities in discrete but also in continuous settings. The framework is general enough to cover the combinations of various procedures such as least square regression, kernel ridge regression,…
