Can someone explain the meaning of 'proxied by' in math? or What does 'proxied by' mean in mathematic

In math, the meaning of "proxied by" is all about substitution.

Think of it like using a placeholder when the real thing is too complex or unavailable.

For instance, in optimization, a proxy function might simplify a harder problem.

If you're into ML, this concept pops up a lot—maybe skim some intro papers on proxy variables.
