A new research paper introduces a theoretical framework for understanding the performance of regularized empirical risk minimization (ERM) estimators. The study demonstrates that the asymptotic risk of these estimators, when tuned using n-fold cross-validation (CV), converges to the risk function of shrinkage estimators tuned by Stein's Unbiased Risk Estimate (SURE). This finding offers a more detailed insight into predictive performance by quantifying how risk varies with the true parameter, moving beyond uniform worst-case regret bounds. AI
