In this talk we shall focus on the role of empirical processes in problems of
statistical learning with i.i.d. data and sequential prediction/online learning.
First, we consider the question of optimal rates of non-parametric estimation with
model misspecification (equivalently, statistical learning with squared loss) .
Utilizing localized empirical process analysis we derive a procedure with...
