Loss Functions , Complexities , and the Legendre Transformation 1
The paper introduces a way of re-constructing a loss function from predictive complexity. We show that a loss function and expectations of the corresponding predictive complexity w.r.t. the Bernoulli distribution are related through the Legendre transformation. It is shown that if two loss functions specify the same complexity then they are equivalent in a strong sense. The expectations are als...
متن کاملTwisted Legendre transformation
The general framework of Legendre transformation is extended to the case of symplectic groupoids, using an appropriate generalization of the notion of generating function (of a Lagrangian submanifold). 1 Tulczyjew triple and its generalization The general framework of Legendre transformation was introduced by Tulczyjew [1]. It consists in recognition of the following structure, which we call th...
متن کاملLegendre functions and the theory of characteristics
We devise a framework encompassing the classical theory of characteristics and the theory valid in the convex case recently obtained by R.T. Rockafellar and P. Wolenski. It relies on a notion of transform introduced by I. Ekeland. It involves a class of functions called Ekeland functions which is large enough to encompass convex functions, concave functions and linear-quadratic functions, as we...
متن کاملThe Legendre Transformation in Modern Optimization
The Legendre transformation (LET) is a product of a general duality principle: any smooth curve is, on the one hand, a locus of pairs, which satisfy the given equation and, on the other hand, an envelope of a family of its tangent lines. Application of LET to a strictly convex and smooth function leads to Legendre identity (LEID). For strictly convex and tree times differentiable function LET l...
متن کاملLegendre transformation and lifting of multi-vectors
This paper has three objectives. First to recall the link between the classical Legendre-Fenschel transformation and a useful isomorphism between 1-jets of functions on a vector bundle and on its dual. As a particular consequence we obtain the classical isomorphism between the cotangent bundle of the tangent bundle T ∗TM and the tangent bundle of the cotangent bundle TT ∗M of any manifold M. Se...
