The fat-shattering dimension characterizes the uniform convergence property of real-valued function classes. The state-of-the-art upper bounds in [6] feature a multiplicative squared logarithmic factor on the sample complexity, leaving an open gap with the existing lower bound. By relying on a refined packing number bound given in [20], we provide an improved uniform convergence bound that closes this gap.
