Self-normalized Cramér-type Moderate Deviation of Stochastic Gradient Langevin Dynamics (2410.22047v1)

Abstract: In this paper, we study the self-normalized Cram\'er-type moderate deviation of the empirical measure of the stochastic gradient Langevin dynamics (SGLD). Consequently, we also derive the Berry-Esseen bound for SGLD. Our approach is by constructing a stochastic differential equation (SDE) to approximate the SGLD and then applying Stein's method as developed in [9,19], to decompose the empirical measure into a martingale difference series sum and a negligible remainder term.
