The Sample Complexity of Parameter-Free Stochastic Convex Optimization

Дата публикации: 17-08-2026 20:26:00


We study the sample complexity of stochastic convex optimization when problem parameters such as the distance to optimality and the Lipschitz constant are unknown. We pursue two strategies. First, we develop a reliable model selection method that avoids overfitting to the validation set. This method allows us to generically tune the learning rate of stochastic optimization methods to match the optimal known-parameter sample complexity up to $\log\log$ factors. Second, we develop a regularization-based method that is specialized to the case that only the distance to optimality is unknown. More specifically, it uses norm-regularized empirical risk minimization to estimate the distance to optimality to within a constant factor, allowing known-parameter stochastic optimization methods to achieve optimal sample complexity. This method provides perfect adaptability to unknown distance to optimality, demonstrating a separation between the sample and computational complexity of parameter-free stochastic convex optimization. Combining these two methods allows us to simultaneously adapt to multiple problem structures.
Experiments performing few-shot learning on CIFAR-10 by fine-tuning CLIP models and prompt engineering Gemini to count shapes indicate that our reliable model selection method can help mitigate overfitting to small validation sets.
