Course Description

Overview

Explore recent advancements in high-dimensional learning through this comprehensive lecture by MIT's Ankur Moitra. Delve into parametric statistics, maximum likelihood estimation, and noise constraint techniques. Examine the effectiveness of empirical mean and variance, and understand the Folklore Theorem. Investigate robustness, hardness, and the price of robustness in estimation. Learn about the Robust Estimation Recipe and the WinWin Algorithm. Analyze relaxed distributional assumptions and their impact on robust estimation. Consider the error guarantee tendencies and the completeness of adversaries in gaussian mean estimation. Gain insights into adversary efficiency and improper learning in high-dimensional contexts.
