On Random Subset Generalization Error Bounds and the Stochastic Gradient Langevin Dynamics Algorithm
share
In this work, we unify several expected generalization error bounds based on random subsets using the framework developed by Hellström and Durisi [1]. First, we recover the bounds based on the individual sample mutual information from Bu et al. [2] and on a random subset of the dataset from Negrea et al. [3]. Then, we introduce their new, analogous bounds in the randomized subsample setting from Steinke and Zakynthinou [4], and we identify some limitations of the framework. Finally, we extend the bounds from Haghifam et al. [5] for Langevin dynamics to stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics and we refine them for loss functions with potentially large gradient norms.
