On the Generalization of Stochastic Gradient Descent with Momentum

Volkan Cevher, Kimon Antonakopoulos

While momentum-based accelerated variants of stochastic gradient descent (SGD) are widely used when training machine learning models, there is little theoretical understanding on the generalization error of such methods. In this work, we first show that th ...

Incremental Learning in Diagonal Linear Networks

Raphaël Jean Berthier

Diagonal linear networks (DLNs) are a toy simplification of artificial neural networks; they consist in a quadratic reparametrization of linear regression inducing a sparse implicit regularization. In this paper, we describe the trajectory of the gradient ...

Deep Learning Generalization with Limited and Noisy Labels

Mahsa Forouzesh

Deep neural networks have become ubiquitous in today's technological landscape, finding their way in a vast array of applications. Deep supervised learning, which relies on large labeled datasets, has been particularly successful in areas such as image cla ...

Hamiltonian Deep Neural Networks Guaranteeing Non-Vanishing Gradients by Design

Giancarlo Ferrari Trecate, Luca Furieri, Clara Lucía Galimberti, Liang Xu

Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) training can be difficult due to vanishing and exploding gradients during weight optimization through backpropagation. To address this problem, we propose a general class of Hamiltonian DNNs (H-DNNs) that stem from the discretiz ...

Benign Overfitting in Deep Neural Networks under Lazy Training

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Fanghui Liu, Zhenyu Zhu

This paper focuses on over-parameterized deep neural networks (DNNs) with ReLU activation functions and proves that when the data distribution is well-separated, DNNs can achieve Bayesoptimal test error for classification while obtaining (nearly) zero-trai ...

An exact mapping from ReLU networks to spiking neural networks

Wulfram Gerstner, Stanislaw Andrzej Wozniak, Ana Stanojevic, Giovanni Cherubini, Angeliki Pantazi

Deep spiking neural networks (SNNs) offer the promise of low-power artificial intelligence. However, training deep SNNs from scratch or converting deep artificial neural networks to SNNs without loss of performance has been a challenge. Here we propose an ...

Supervised learning and inference of spiking neural networks with temporal coding

Ana Stanojevic

The way biological brains carry out advanced yet extremely energy efficient signal processing remains both fascinating and unintelligible. It is known however that at least some areas of the brain perform fast and low-cost processing relying only on a smal ...

Exploring neural networks and their potential for species distribution modeling

Devis Tuia, Benjamin Alexander Kellenberger, Nina Marion Aurélia Van Tiel, Robin Adrien Zbinden, Lloyd Haydn Hughes

Species distribution models (SDMs) relate species occurrence data with environmental variables and are used to understand and predict species distributions across landscapes. While some machine learning models have been adopted by the SDM community, recent ...
