DESCRIPTION:PAC-Bayes is a frequentist framework for obtaining generalisat
 ion error bounds. It has been used to derive learning algorithms\, provide
  explanations for generalisation in deep learning\, and form connections b
 etween Bayesian and frequentist inference. This reading group will cover a
  broad introduction to PAC bounds\, the proof ideas in PAC-Bayes\, and a d
 iscussion of some recent applications.\n \nSuggested reading:\n# Computing
  Nonvacuous Generalization Bounds for Deep (Stochastic) Neural Networks wi
