Online Learning: Random Averages, Combinatorial Parameters, and Learnability

Abstract

We study learnability in the online learning model. We define several complexity measures which capture the difficulty of learning in a sequential manner. Among these measures are analogues of Rademacher complexity, covering numbers and fat shattering dimension from statistical learning theory. Relationship among these complexity measures, their connection to online learning, and tools for bounding them are provided. In the setting of supervised learning, finiteness of the introduced scale-sensitive parameters is shown to be equivalent to learnability. The complexities we define also ensure uniform convergence non-i.i.d. data, extending the uniform Glivenko-Cantelli type results. We conclude by showing online learnability for an array of examples.
