Abstract: So far the study of exponential bounds of an empirical process has been restricted to a bounded index class of functions. The case of an unbounded index class of functions is now studied on the basis of a new symmetrization idea and a new method of truncating the original probability space; the exponential bounds of the tail probabilities for the supremum of the empirical process over an unbounded class of functions are obtained. The exponential bounds can be used to establish laws of the logarithm for the empirical processes over unbounded classes of functions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
