  journal = {Stochastic Inequalities and Applications},
  abstract = {We obtain exponential concentration inequalities for sub-additive
  functions of independent random variables under weak conditions on the
  increments of those functions, like
  the existence of exponential moments for these increments.
  As a consequence of these general inequalities, we obtain refinements
  of Talagrand's inequality for empirical processes and new
  bounds for randomized empirical processes.
  These results are obtained by further developing the entropy method
  introduced by Ledoux.},
