Convex regularization in statistical inverse learning problems

We consider a statistical inverse learning problem, where the task is to estimate a function based on noisy point evaluations of , where is a linear operator. The function is evaluated at i.i.d. random design points , generated by an unknown general probability distribution. We consider Tikhonov regularization with general convex and -homogeneous penalty functionals and derive concentration rates of the regularized solution to the ground truth measured in the symmetric Bregman distance induced by the penalty functional. We derive concrete rates for Besov norm penalties and numerically demonstrate the correspondence with the observed rates in the context of X-ray tomography.
