problem Understanding the value of target data in transfer learning.
method Established minimax-rates for source and target sample sizes, introduced transfer exponents.
result Performance limits in transfer learning are captured by transfer exponents.
We present new minimax results that concisely capture the relative benefits of source and target labeled data, under covariate-shift. Namely, we show that the benefits of target labels are controlled by a transfer-exponent that encodes how singular Q is locally w.r.t. P, and interestingly allows situations where tr…
