The Empirical Mean is Minimax Optimal for Local Glivenko-Cantelli
Doron Cohen, Aryeh Kontorovich, Roi Weiss
We revisit the recently introduced Local Glivenko-Cantelli setting, which studies distribution-dependent uniform convergence rates of the Empirical Mean Estimator (EME). In this wo…

Correlated Binomial Process
Moïse Blanchard, Doron Cohen, Aryeh Kontorovich
Cohen and Kontorovich (COLT 2023) initiated the study of what we call here the Binomial Empirical Process: the maximal absolute value of a sequence of inhomogeneous normalized and…
