Query: RATT: Leveraging Unlabeled Data to Guarantee Generalization   To assess generalization, machine learning scientists typically either (i)
bound the generalization gap and then (after training) plug in the empirical
risk to obtain a bound on the true risk; or (ii) validate empirically on
holdout data. However, (i) typically yields vacuous guarantees for
overparameterized models. Furthermore, (ii) shrinks the training set and its
guarantee erodes with each re-use of the holdout set. In this paper, we
introduce a method that leverages unlabeled data to produce generalization
bounds. After augmenting our (labeled) training set with randomly labeled fresh
examples, we train in the standard fashion. Whenever classifiers achieve low
error on clean data and high error on noisy data, our bound provides a tight
upper bound on the true risk. We prove that our bound is valid for 0-1
empirical risk minimization and with linear classifiers trained by gradient
descent. Our approach is especially useful in conjunction with deep learning
due to the early learning phenomenon whereby networks fit true labels before
noisy labels but requires one intuitive assumption. Empirically, on canonical
computer vision and NLP tasks, our bound provides non-vacuous generalization
guarantees that track actual performance closely. This work provides
practitioners with an option for certifying the generalization of deep nets
even when unseen labeled data is unavailable and provides theoretical insights
into the relationship between random label noise and generalization.
