A Unified Descriptive-Complexity Framework for Model Selection under Correlated Designs

arXiv · AI, language, vision and robotics · article · Aug 27, 2026 · UTC

Model selection becomes particularly challenging under strong predictor dependence and model-class uncertainty, especially when there are exponentially many models. We propose a Descriptive-Complexity Information Criterion (DCIC) that regularizes large candidate model collections through Kraft-admissible code lengths. Under sub-Weibull noise, we establish selection consistency through approximation-error separation without relying on RIP-type conditions, together with nonasymptotic oracle risk bounds that remain valid under model misspecification. The same coding principle places heterogeneous
