For example, besides the prediction quality, this could be the efficiency, robustness or fairness of the learned models, or any of their combinations. Multi-objective learning offers a natural framework for handling such problems without having to commit to early trade-offs. Surprisingly, statistical learning theory so far offers almost no insight into the generalization properties of multi-objective learning. In this work, we make first steps to fill this gap: We establish foundational generalization bounds for the multi-objective setting as well as generalization and excess bounds for learning with scalarizations. We also provide the first theoretical analysis of the relation between the Pareto-optimal sets of the true objectives and the Pareto-optimal sets of their empirical approximations from training data. In particular, we show a surprising asymmetry: All Pareto-optimal solutions can be approximated by empirically Pareto-optimal ones, but not vice versa."}],"volume":37,"quality_controlled":"1","user_id":"2DF688A6-F248-11E8-B48F-1D18A9856A87","page":"24669–24683","date_published":"2025-10-01T00:00:00Z","has_accepted_license":"1","year":"2025","oa_version":"Published Version","date_updated":"2025-12-30T06:39:56Z","type":"journal_article","day":"01","publisher":"Springer Nature","status":"public","tmp":{"short":"CC BY (4.0)","legal_code_url":"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/legalcode","image":"/images/cc_by.png","name":"Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International Public License (CC-BY 4.0)"},"doi":"10.1007/s00521-024-10616-1","OA_place":"publisher","OA_type":"hybrid","article_type":"original","arxiv":1,"ddc":["004"],"article_processing_charge":"Yes (via OA deal)","citation":{"mla":"Súkeník, Peter, and Christoph Lampert. “Generalization in Multi-Objective Machine Learning.” <i>Neural Computing and Applications</i>, vol. 37, Springer Nature, 2025, pp. 24669–24683, doi:<a href=\"https://doi.org/10.1007/s00521-024-10616-1\">10.1007/s00521-024-10616-1</a>.","short":"P.

Firstly, using several important assets (BTCUSD, ETHUSDT, XRPUSDT, AAPL, SPY, NIFTY50), we verify the reward generalization property of the proposed Multi-Objective algorithm, and provide preliminary statistical evidence showing increased predictive stability over the corresponding Single-Objective strategy. Secondly, we show that the Multi-Objective algorithm has a clear edge over the corresponding Single-Objective strategy when the reward mechanism is sparse (i.e., when non-null feedback is infrequent over time). Finally, we discuss the generalization properties with respect to the discount factor.
