New research details Stochastic Mirror Descent for dependent observations

A new research paper explores the Stochastic Mirror Descent (SMD) algorithm, focusing on its convergence properties when dealing with dependent observations rather than the typical independent and identically distributed (i.i.d.) data. The study introduces a novel "forgetting" condition to handle sequences with geometric or polynomial dependencies. This framework yields explicit finite-sample accuracy bounds for averaged SMD iterates, achieving standard rates in different error regimes. The paper demonstrates the applicability of this generalized approach to high-dimensional linear regression with dependent regressors and to the nonparametric estimation of functional autoregressive models.

    Stochastic Mirror Descent under Dependent Observations

    arXiv:2610.41251v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We study the non-asymptotic convergence of Stochastic Mirror Descent (SMD) algorithm when the noisy first-order oracle is driven by dependent observations. Departing from the classical i.i.d. assumption underlying most existing gu…
