In our recent paper, we prove a universality theorem for learning with random features. Our result shows that, in terms of training and generalization errors, the random feature model with a nonlinear activation function is asymptotically equivalent to a surrogate Gaussian model with a matching covariance matrix. This settles a conjecture based on which several recent papers develop their results. Our method for proving the universality builds on the classical Lindeberg approach. Major ingredients of the proof include a leave-one-out analysis for the optimization problem associated with the training process and a central limit theorem, obtained via Stein's method, for weakly correlated random variables.
