For a fixed sample , its Empirical Rademacher complexity is
Its sample expected value is .
Because every takes values in , replacing one sample point changes by at most . Put
The lower-tail form of the Bounded differences inequality gives
outside an event of probability at most .
For the excess-loss supremum from part (b), replacing one observation changes by at most . A second application of the same inequality gives
outside another event of probability at most . On the intersection of these two events, symmetrization and the union bound yield
This event has probability at least , and . Thus
For a zero-one-valued loss class , the excess misclassification risk of an empirical risk minimizer over a population minimizer satisfies
with probability at least . The proof combines Rademacher symmetrization with the Bounded differences inequality for the supremum of the empirical excess-loss process.
The observable version is
It follows by another application of the Bounded differences inequality to the Empirical Rademacher complexity.
