Learning with infinite hypothesis sets
Bias Variance
The end of learning theory….
Recap
The Test Set – Take a look at Eout
Fixed hypothesis h, N independent data points, and any ε>0
•
•
•
•
•
Split your data into two parts D-train,D-test
Train on D-train and select hypothesis h
Test h on D-test, error
Apply Hoeffding bound to
Cannot be used for anything else
Generalization Bound
Goal: Extend to infinite hypothesis spaces
Dichotomies
Dichotomy
bit string of length N
Fixed set of N points X = (x1,..,xN) Hypothesis set
Each
gives a dichotomy
Growth, Shattering, Breaks
If
then we say that
shatters (x1,…,xN)
If no data set of size K can be shattered by
then K is a break point for

2D Hyperplanes 3 is not a break point.

Else
Very Important Theorem
If
has a break point then the
growth function is polynomial
Polynomial of max degree k-1
Growth Function Generalization Bound
VC Theorem
Proof: Book Appendix (Intuition in book)
If growth function is polynomial
we can learn with infinite hypothesis sets!!!
VC Dimension
The VC Dimension of a hypothesis set
is maximal number of points it can shatter,
e.g. max N such that
It is denoted dvc
The smallest break point minus one

VC Dimension For Linear Classification
VC Dimension for d dimensional inputs
(d+1 parameters with the bias) is d+1
Proof Coming Up
Show dvc ≥ d+1
Show dvc < d+2
dvc ≥ d+1
Find a set of d+1 points we can shatter
Idea: Make points (Vectors) independent,
by using one dimension for each point
X is a Matrix
(d+1)x(d+1)
Rows = Points
Invertible
dvc ≥ d+1
Consider Dichotomy
Find θ such that
Solve
Solve
dvc < d+2
For any d+2 points we must prove there is a
dichotomy hyperplanes can not capture,
Consider
d+1 dimensional points (vectors)
They must be linearly dependent
(more vectors than dimensions)
Ignore zero terms
dvc < d+2
Dichotomy:
Claim. This dichotomy is impossible to
capture with hyperplanes
dvc = d+1 For Hyperplanes
dvc= number of free parameters
Vapnik-Chervonenskis (VC)
Generalization Bound
For any tolerance δ >0
With Probability at least 1-δ
Quote Book “The VC Generalization bound is the most
important mathematical result in the theory of learning”
VC Generaliation Bound
• Independent of learning algorithm, target
function, P(x), and out of sample error
– General Indeed
• We need to bound Growth function for all of
our hypothesis spaces. We showed #free
parameters for hyperplanes.
Exercise 2.5
with
N=100, Probability that
a
to be within 0.1 of
?
Happens with probability 1-δ < 0 e.g. Ridiculous
Cost of Generality
• Growth Function was really worst case
• Independent of P(x), target, out of sample
error
Sample Complexity
Fix tolerance δ , (success probability ≥ 1-δ)
Consider generalization error at most ε. How big N?
Upper bound it more
by using VC dim polynomial
Sampling Complexity
Plug in ε,δ = 0.1
Lets Plot
function sc_vcdim()
dat = 5000:2500:100000;
hold off;
plot(dat,dat,'r-','linewidth',3);
hold on
for i=3:9
tmp =
800*log(40*((2.*dat).^i+1));
plot(dat,tmp,'b-','linewidth',3);
end
Sampling Complexity
Book Statement. In Practice
VC Interpretation
• We can learn with infinite hypothesis sets.
• VC Dimension captures Effective number of
parameters/ degrees of Freedom

Vapnik-Chervonenkis (VC) Theorem
For any delta > 0
With probability 1-delta
Test Set Estimate (M=1) a lot tighter
Learning Summary
•

•
•
There is theory for regression as well.
We will not go there
Move on to bias variance
Last learning theory in this course.
Bias Variance Decomposition
• Consider Least Squares Error Measure again
and see if we can understand out of sample
Error.
• For simplicity, assume our target function is
noiseless, e.g. it is an exact function of the
input.
Experiments
• Take two functions ax+b, cx2+ dx+e
• Target function which is ¼ < x < 3/4
• Repeatedly pick 3 random data points
(x,target(x)) and fit our models
• Plot it and see
Bias Variance
• Out of sample error we get depends on
hypothesis.
• Hypothesis is result of learning algorithm which is
a function of the training data
• Training data effects out of sample error
• Think of data as a random variable and analyze
what happens.
• What happens if we repeatedly sample data and
run our learning algorithm.
