Measured effects reported in the paper
| What was changed | Where | Measured | Effect |
|---|---|---|---|
| Replace Rademacher-complexity bound (O(K/√n)) with local clustering Rademacher complexity and covering-number assumption (logarithmic covering number, Assumption 2) | excess clustering risk bound for clustering framework · theoretical excess risk bound | convergence rate of excess clustering risk: from O(K/√n) to e O(K^2/n) | Helped |
| Bound clustering Rademacher complexity by max per-coordinate complexity with factor sqrt(K) instead of K (Foster & Rakhlin-based refinement) | clustering Rademacher complexity bound · theoretical excess risk bound | convergence rate of excess clustering risk: from O(K/√n) to O(√K/√n) for hard clustering (L=1) | Helped |
| Use covering-number assumptions with the improved K-dependence (Lipschitz L∞ assumption) in the local Rademacher bound | hard clustering (k-means, kernel k-means) excess risk bound · theoretical excess risk bound | convergence rate of excess clustering risk: from O(K^2/n) to e O(K/n) | Helped |
| Bounded-support assumption only (no covering number) with Rademacher-based bound for hard clustering | hard clustering (k-means, kernel k-means) excess risk bound · bounded hypothesis functions | convergence rate of excess clustering risk: from O(K/√n) to O(√K/√n) | Helped |
