On Regularization via Early Stopping for Least Squares Regression

arXiv:2406.04425v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: A fundamental problem in machine learning is understanding the effect of early stopping on the parameters obtained and the generalization capabilities of the model. Even for linear models, the effect is not fully understood for arbitrary learning rates and data. In this paper, we analyze the dynamics of discrete full batch gradient descent for linear regression. With minimal distributional assumptions, we characterize the trajectory of the parameters and the expected excess risk. Using this characterization, we show that when training with an
