\chapter*{Abstract}
This work explores a set of methods for robust estimation under distribution shift.
Our contributions include a new estimator, theoretical guarantees, and empirical validation.

\chapter{Introduction}
\section{Context}
Distribution shift is ubiquitous in deployed ML systems.
\section{Outline}
Chapter 2 reviews the field; Chapter 3 introduces our estimator.

\chapter{Preliminaries}
Let $P_0$ and $P_1$ denote the source and target distributions.

\chapter{Proposed Method}
We minimize a weighted empirical risk with a KL penalty.
\begin{equation}
  \hat\theta = \arg\min_\theta \frac{1}{n}\sum_{i=1}^n w_i \ell(\theta; z_i)
             + \lambda \mathrm{KL}(w \| \mathbf{1}).
\end{equation}

\chapter{Experiments}
We evaluate on CIFAR-10-C, ImageNet-R, and DomainNet.

\chapter{Conclusion}
We have shown clear improvements over strong baselines.
