Abstract

We introduce new concentration inequalities for functions on product spaces. They allow to obtain a Bennett type deviation bound for suprema of empirical processes indexed by upper bounded functions. The result is an improvement on Rio's version \citeRio01b} of Talagrand's inequality \cite{Talagrand96 for equidistributed variables.
