Abstract

One of the open problems in machine learning is whether any set-family of VC-dimension d admits a sample compression scheme of size O(d). In this paper, we study this problem for balls in graphs. For balls of arbitrary radius r, we design proper sample compression schemes of size 4 for interval graphs, of size 6 for trees of cycles, and of size 22 for cube-free median graphs. We also design approximate sample compression schemes of size 2 for balls of δ-hyperbolic graphs.
