New Monograph on Statistically Valid Hyperparameter Selection
The preprint of "Statistically Valid Hyperparameter Selection: From Tuning to Guarantees"
is now available on arXiv. The monograph addresses how hyperparameter selection plays a central
role in the development of modern machine learning, and presents a unified framework for
obtaining statistical guarantees on the selected hyperparameters.
