On the Generalization Properties of Learning the Random Feature Models with Learnable Activation Functions

2025-10-17 · Zailin Ma, Jiansheng Yang, Yaodong Yang arxiv

This paper studies the generalization properties of a recently proposed kernel method, the Random Feature models with Learnable Activation Functions (RFLAF). By applying a data-dependent sampling scheme for generating features, we provide by far the sharpest bounds on the required number of features for learning RFLAF in both the regression and classification tasks. We provide a unified theorem that describes the complexity of the feature number $s$, and discuss the results for the plain sampling scheme and the data-dependent leverage weighted scheme. Through weighted sampling, the bound on $s$ in the MSE loss case is improved from $Ω(1/ε^2)$ to $\tildeΩ((1/ε)^{1/t})$ in general $(t\geq 1)$, and even to $Ω(1)$ when the Gram matrix has a finite rank. For the Lipschitz loss case, the bound is improved from $Ω(1/ε^2)$ to $\tildeΩ((1/ε^2)^{1/t})$. To learn the weighted RFLAF, we also propose an algorithm to find an approximate kernel and then apply the leverage weighted sampling. Empirical results show that the weighted RFLAF achieves the same performances with a significantly fewer number of features compared to the plainly sampled RFLAF, validating our theories and the effectiveness of this method.

Random Feature Models with Learnable Activation Functions

2024-11-29 · Zailin Ma, Jiansheng Yang, Yaodong Yang

Current random feature models typically rely on fixed activation functions, limiting their ability to capture diverse patterns in data. To address this, we introduce the Random Feature model with Learnable Activation Fun…

Overparameterized random feature regression with nearly orthogonal data

2022-11-11 · Zhichao Wang, Yizhe Zhu

We investigate the properties of random feature ridge regression (RFRR) given by a two-layer neural network with random Gaussian initialization. We study the non-asymptotic behaviors of the RFRR with nearly orthogonal de…

A Spectral Approach to Generalization and Optimization in Neural Networks

2018-01-01 · ICLR 2018 1 · Farzan Farnia, Jesse Zhang, David Tse

The recent success of deep neural networks stems from their ability to generalize well on real data; however, Zhang et al. have observed that neural networks can easily overfit random labels. This observation demonstrate…

We study the generalization properties of ridge regression with random features in the statistical learning framework. We show for the first time that $O(1/\sqrt{n})$ learning bounds can be achieved with only $O(\sqrt{n}…
