Axis 2: A Primer on PAC-Bayesian Learning
Participant: Benjamin Guedj
This survey on PAC-Bayesian learning has been the backbone to a successful proposal for an ICML 2019 plenary tutorial.
Generalised Bayesian learning algorithms are increasingly popular in machine learning, due to their PAC generalisation properties and flexibility. The present paper aims at providing a self-contained survey on the resulting PAC-Bayes framework and some of its main theoretical and algorithmic developments.
