"""Claims 4 & 5: find the corner where the bounds are actually non-vacuous. Theorems 3 and 4 both carry an exponential prefactor, Thm 3: F^gen <= C * (eta*T/n) * exp( eta*T*(K-k+1)/sqrt(m) ) Thm 4: F^gen <= C * (eta/n) * sum_t Fhat * exp( eta*c_kK /sqrt(m) ) On the main exp4 grid (eta = 100) those exponents run from 71 to 15179, so both right-hand sides exceed the measured gap by 30 to 300+ orders of magnitude. "The bound holds" is then true but empty: it would hold for any conceivable measurement. The question worth answering is whether there is *any* reachable setting in which the bounds say something, and whether they hold there. The exponent is O(1) when eta*T*K / sqrt(m) is O(1). That is reachable with a small step size and a wide network: eta = 1, T <= 100, m up to 1e4 gives eta*T*K/sqrt(m) in [0.2, 6.7], i.e. an exp factor of at most ~800 rather than 10^103. Grid: d=50, K=3, logistic loss, eta=1, T in {10,25,50,100}, m in {2000,10000}, n in {200,800,3200}, 6 seeds = 144 runs. Cheap: K*T <= 300 GD steps, and both the width and sample size stay modest.
