On the Convergence of Multicalibration Gradient Boosting

arXiv:2602.06773v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Multicalibration gradient boosting has recently emerged as a scalable method that empirically produces approximately multicalibrated predictors and has been deployed at web scale. Despite this empirical success, its convergence properties are not well understood. In this paper, we provide computational guarantees for multicalibration gradient boosting algorithms. We show that the magnitude of successive prediction updates decays at $O(1/\sqrt{T})$, which implies the same convergence rate bound for the empirical multicalibration error over ro…
