How statement and proof provenance work

The first chip identifies the source of the statement or construction; the second identifies the source of its local proof or verification.

  • Literature-sourced: the exact statement appears in a cited source; only wording and notation differ.
  • AI-adapted: a semantically identical restatement of literature-sourced material, modulo indexing, notation, and boundary cases adopted by the library.
  • AI-generated: a genuinely novel statement formulated by AI, with no source for the claim itself.

These labels describe origin, not correctness: citations and verification chips remain separate evidence.

Pointwise risk is variance plus squared bias

Statement

Assume AC as used to select the regression target version. Fix a model parameter θ and point x. Let Tx be a real estimator of the finite target ψ=mθ(x) with Eθ[Tx2]<∞. Define its bias by bθ(x)=Eθ[Tx]−mθ(x). Its pointwise squared-error risk from Pointwise squared-error risk for regression satisfies Rx(θ,Tx)=Var⁡θ(Tx)+bθ(x)2.

Facts & Assumptions

Given: The target, estimator, finite second moment, and AC hypothesis in the statement.

[F1]

Pointwise squared-error risk is Rx(θ,Tx)=∫(Tx(z)−mθ(x))2Pθ(dz). Pointwise squared-error risk for regression.

[F2]

For square-integrable Tx, Var⁡θ(Tx)=Eθ[(Tx−EθTx)2]. Moments, variance, and covariance on a probability space.

[A1]

AC is used only through the selected real version of mθ(x) in Regression target and chosen version; the algebra below is choice-free.

Proof

1.1givenF2A1algebra

Write Tx−mθ(x)=(Tx−EθTx)+bθ(x). Squaring and taking expectations gives Eθ[(Tx−mθ(x))2]=Eθ[(Tx−EθTx)2]+bθ(x)2, because Eθ[Tx−EθTx]=0.

By [F1] the left side of step 1.1 is the pointwise risk, and by [F2] its first term on the right is the variance. This is the asserted identity.

Dependency tree · two levels

10 results within two dependency steps of this one, each drawn at its shortest distance from it. An arrow runs from a result to what uses it, so the chart reads left to right and ends at this result, which carries a heavier outline. Every node is a link to that result.
