Introduces a functional framework for deep neural networks with adaptive piecewise-linear splines, focusing on biomedical image reconstruction and the challenges of deep splines.
Delves into deep learning's dimensionality, data representation, and performance in classifying large-dimensional data, exploring the curse of dimensionality and the neural tangent kernel.
Covers optimization in machine learning, focusing on gradient descent for linear and logistic regression, stochastic gradient descent, and practical considerations.
