Improved Distribution Estimation in $\ell_\infty$ 事件

Improved Distribution Estimation in $\ell_\infty$ arXiv:2605.30509v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We present improved bounds for estimating discrete probability distributions under the $\ell_\infty$ norm. These include minimax bounds in expectation and high-probability tail bounds. We resolve some of the open questions posed in Kontorovich and Painsky (JMLR, 2025) -- including a fully empirical version of the tightest risk bound they presented and identifying the form of the worst-case extrem
