Comparing Corrupted Constrained Learning Problems

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 26, 2026 · UTC

A key result in statistics is the data processing inequality, originally proved by Blackwell (1951) and later refined by DeGroot (1962) in terms of statistical uncertainty. It states that the Bayes risk of a statistical experiment obtained by stochastically modifying another experiment cannot be lower than the Bayes risk of the original experiment, regardless of the loss function or prior chosen. In machine learning, this result underlies applications such as the information bottleneck principle and some feature learning techniques. However, machine learning problems are constrained learning p
