Abstract
Uniform laws of large numbers provide theoretical foundations for statistical learning theory. This series of lectures will focus on quantitative uniform laws of large numbers for random matrices. A range of illustrations will be given in geometric functional analysis and data science, in particular to covariance estimation, signal recovery, and sparse regression.
