Machine Learning (ML) and Algorithmic Information Theory (AIT) look at Complexity from di􀀛erent points of view. We explore the interface between AIT and Kernel Methods (that are prevalent in ML) by adopting an AIT perspective on the problem of learning kernels from data, in kernel ridge regression, through the method of Sparse Kernel Flows. In particular, by looking at the di􀀛erences and commonalities between Minimal Description Length (MDL) and Regularization in Machine Learning (RML), we prove that the method of Sparse Kernel Flows is the natural approach to adopt to learn kernels from data. This approach aligns naturally with the MDL principle, o􀀛ering a more robust theoretical basis than the existing reliance on cross-validation. The study reveals that deriving Sparse Kernel Flows does not require a statistical approach; instead, one can directly engage with code-lengths and complexities, concepts central to AIT. Thereby, this approach opens the door to reformulating algorithms in machine learning using tools from AIT, with the aim of providing them amore solid theoretical foundation.  \n1. Introduction  \nAlgorithmic Information Theory (AIT) and Machine Learning are key approaches for analyzing complex systems. AIT aims to formalize simplicity and complexity using measures like Kolmogorov Complexity and Algorithmic Solomono􀀛 Probability [RH11, Hut07a, GV08] .  \nConversely, Machine Learning (ML) focuses on algorithms designed to improve performance with more data, enabling the analysis of high-dimensional complex systems, even when the model is unknown. Reproducing Kernels, are often used as measures of similarity in ML, and Kernel-based methods hold potential for considerable advantages in terms of theoretical analysis, numerical implementation, regularization, guaranteed convergence, automatization, and interpretability. Indeed, reproducing kernel Hilbert spaces (RKHS) [CS02] have provided strong mathematical foundations for analyzing dynamical systems [BH10, HKA+ 90, HHSW18, D.W21, GHRW19, BKH+ 21, HC19, KNH20,  \nKey words and phrases.

[SH19] for a survey) . Recently, experiments by Hamzi and Owhadi and collaborators [HO21, Owh21, Tur21, LDHO23, DTL+ 21, DHS+ 21, HOK22, YSH+ 24, YHK+ 23] have shown that Kernel Flows (KFs)[OY19] (an RKHS technique) can successfully reconstruct the dynamics of prototypical chaotic dynamical systems under both regular and irregular sampling in time and that it can be successful in predicting complex, large-scale systems, including climate data.  \nIn this paper, we look at the problem of learning kernels from data from an AIT point of view and show that the problem of learning kernels from data can be viewed as a problem of compression of data. In particular, using the Minimal Description Length (MDL) principle, we show that Sparse Kernel Flows [YSH+ 24] is a natural approach for learning kernels from data from an AIT point of view and that it is not necessary to use a cross-validation argument to justify its e􀀞ciency, thus giving it a more solid theoretical foundation.  \nOur work can also be viewed as a step to bridge the gap between AIT and Kernel Methods; and is to be contrasted vis-à-vis [Bac22], where the author considered (Classical) Information with Kernel Methods, and our work could also be viewed as a perspective on Kernel Methods from an AIT point of view instead of the classical Information Theory point of view adopted in [Bac22], cf.
