Generalization, memorization, and overfitting for diffusion models trained in the lazy high-dimensional regime

Hugo Latourelle-Vigeant, Sinho Chewi, Aram-Alexandre Pooladian +2

Modern score-based generative models have achieved remarkable empirical success in high-dimensional tasks such as image, audio, and video synthesis. These models reduce distributio…

The sharp SAT/UNSAT phase transition in random ellipsoid fitting

Theodor Misiakiewicz, Garrett G. Wen

Let be independent standard Gaussian vectors in . An \emph{ellipsoid fit} is a matrix such that for every , so t…

Dynamical mean-field limit and replica-symmetric free energy for the orthogonally-invariant SK model

Zhou Fan, Theodor Misiakiewicz, Leda Wang +1

We study a class of diffusion processes on interacting through a symmetric matrix . When eigenvectors of are Haar-uniform on the orth…

Positive Distribution Shift as a Framework for Understanding Tractable Learning

Marko Medvedev, Idan Attias, Elisabetta Cornacchia +3

We study a setting where the goal is to learn a target function f(x) with respect to a target distribution D(x), but training is done on i.i.d. samples from a different training di…

Statistical-Computational Trade-offs in Learning Multi-Index Models via Harmonic Analysis

Hugo Latourelle-Vigeant, Theodor Misiakiewicz

We study the problem of learning multi-index models (MIMs), where the label depends on the input only through an unknown -dimensional…

When does Gaussian equivalence fail and how to fix it: Non-universal behavior of random features with quadratic scaling

Garrett G. Wen, Hong Hu, Yue M. Lu +2

A major effort in modern high-dimensional statistics has been devoted to the analysis of linear predictors trained on nonlinear feature embeddings via empirical risk minimization (…

Learning single-index models via harmonic decomposition

Nirmit Joshi, Hugo Koubbi, Theodor Misiakiewicz +1

We study the problem of learning single-index models, where the label depends on the input only through an unknown one-dimensio…

A Theory of Learning with Autoregressive Chain of Thought

Nirmit Joshi, Gal Vardi, Adam Block +4

For a given base class of sequence-to-next-token generators, we consider learning prompt-to-answer mappings obtained by iterating a fixed, time-invariant generator for multiple ste…

On the Complexity of Learning Sparse Functions with Statistical and Gradient Queries

Nirmit Joshi, Theodor Misiakiewicz, Nathan Srebro

The goal of this paper is to investigate the complexity of gradient algorithms when learning sparse functions (juntas). We introduce a type of Statistical Queries (),…

A non-asymptotic theory of Kernel Ridge Regression: deterministic equivalents, test error, and GCV estimator

Theodor Misiakiewicz, Basil Saeed

We consider learning an unknown target function using kernel ridge regression (KRR) given i.i.d. data , , where is a covariate vector and $y_i…

Asymptotics of Random Feature Regression Beyond the Linear Scaling Regime

Hong Hu, Yue M. Lu, Theodor Misiakiewicz

Recent advances in machine learning have been achieved by using overparametrized models trained until near interpolation of the training data. It was shown, e.g., through the doubl…
