Abstract

In Theorems 7.1 and 7.2 oracle inequalities for norm-penalized empirical risk minimizers (or M-estimators) were shown. These inequalities require a probability bound for the dual norm of the empirical process. Here such bounds are provided for. The models and methods studied are exponential families, projection estimators and generalized linear models.

Notes

  1. 1.

    Note that for A = (A 1, , A p ), it holds true that \(\varLambda _{\varOmega _{{\ast}}}(A) \leq \vert \vert \vert A\vert \vert \vert _{\varOmega _{{\ast}}} =:\max _{k}\varOmega _{{\ast}}(A_{k})\).
