Summary
This chapter considers a different, although closely related method. In this approach, we first bound the expectation of the supremum of an underlying empirical process using the so-called Rademacher complexity, and then use concentration inequalities to obtain high-probability bounds. This approach simplifies various derivations in generalization analysis.
