Abstract (arXiv)

When utilising PAC-Bayes theory for risk certification, it is usually necessary to estimate and bound the Gibbs risk of the PAC-Bayes posterior. Many works in the literature employ a method for this which requires a large number of passes of the dataset, incurring high computational cost. This manuscript presents a very general alternative which makes computational savings on the order of the dataset size.
