Minimax Optimal Estimator and Improved Error Rate for the MLE in Logistic Regression with Gaussian Design

We study finite-sample parameter estimation in logistic regression with Gaussian design, where the goal is to estimate $\mathbf{\theta}^*\in \mathbb{R}^d$ with $R=\|\mathbf{\theta}^*\|_2\ge 1$ from i.i.d. samples $\{(\mathbf{x}_i,y_i)\}_{i=1}^n,$ $\mathbf{x}_i \sim N(0,\mathbf{I}_d)$, $y_i\mid \mathbf{x}_i \sim \mathrm...
