Expectation Error Bounds for Transfer Learning in Linear Regression and Linear Neural Networks

In transfer learning, the learner leverages auxiliary data to improve generalization on a main task. However, the precise theoretical understanding of when and how auxiliary data help remains incomplete. We provide new insights on this issue in two canonical linear settings: ordinary least squares regression and under-parameterized linear neural networks. For linear regression, we derive exact closed-form expressions for the expected generalization error with bias-variance decomposition, yieldin
