We investigate the in-context learning capabilities of transformers for the $d$-dimensional mixture of linear regression model, providing theoretical insights into their existence, generalization bounds, and training dynamics. Specifically, we prove that there exists a transformer capable of achieving a prediction error of order $\mathcal{O}(\sqrt{d/n})$ with high probability, where $n$ represents the training prompt size in the high signal-to-noise ratio (SNR) regime. Moreover, we derive in-context excess risk bounds of order $\mathcal{O}(L/\sqrt{B})$ for the case of two mixtures, where $B$ denotes the number of training prompts, and $L$ represents the number of attention layers. The dependence of $L$ on the SNR is explicitly characterized, differing between low and high SNR settings. We further analyze the training dynamics of transformers with single linear self-attention layers, demonstrating that, with appropriately initialized parameters, gradient flow optimization over the population mean square loss converges to a global optimum. Extensive simulations suggest that transformers perform well on this task, potentially outperforming other baselines, such as the Expectation-Maximization algorithm.
