过分分度化是没有凸起的关键因素,以解释神经网络的全局渐变(GD)的全局融合。除了研究良好的懒惰政权旁边,已经为浅网络开发了无限宽度(平均场)分析,使用凸优化技术。为了弥合懒惰和平均场制度之间的差距,我们研究残留的网络(RESNET),其中残留块具有线性参数化,同时仍然是非线性的。这种Resnets承认无限深度和宽度限制,在再现内核Hilbert空间(RKHS)中编码残差块。在这个限制中,我们证明了当地的Polyak-Lojasiewicz不等式。因此,每个关键点都是全球最小化器和GD的局部收敛结果,并检索懒惰的制度。与其他平均场研究相比,它在残留物的表达条件下适用于参数和非参数案。我们的分析导致实用和量化的配方:从通用RKHS开始,应用随机傅里叶特征来获得满足我们的表征条件的高概率的有限维参数化。

We explore the ability of overparameterized shallow ReLU neural networks to learn Lipschitz, non-differentiable, bounded functions with additive noise when trained by Gradient Descent (GD). To avoid the problem that in the presence of noise, neural networks trained to nearly zero training error are inconsistent in this class, we focus on the early-stopped GD which allows us to show consistency and optimal rates. In particular, we explore this problem from the viewpoint of the Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) approximation of a GD-trained finite-width neural network. We show that whenever some early stopping rule is guaranteed to give an optimal rate (of excess risk) on the Hilbert space of the kernel induced by the ReLU activation function, the same rule can be used to achieve minimax optimal rate for learning on the class of considered Lipschitz functions by neural networks. We discuss several data-free and data-dependent practically appealing stopping rules that yield optimal rates.

Neural networks trained to minimize the logistic (a.k.a. cross-entropy) loss with gradient-based methods are observed to perform well in many supervised classification tasks. Towards understanding this phenomenon, we analyze the training and generalization behavior of infinitely wide two-layer neural networks with homogeneous activations. We show that the limits of the gradient flow on exponentially tailed losses can be fully characterized as a max-margin classifier in a certain non-Hilbertian space of functions. In presence of hidden low-dimensional structures, the resulting margin is independent of the ambiant dimension, which leads to strong generalization bounds. In contrast, training only the output layer implicitly solves a kernel support vector machine, which a priori does not enjoy such an adaptivity. Our analysis of training is non-quantitative in terms of running time but we prove computational guarantees in simplified settings by showing equivalences with online mirror descent. Finally, numerical experiments suggest that our analysis describes well the practical behavior of two-layer neural networks with ReLU activations and confirm the statistical benefits of this implicit bias.

我们为生成对抗网络(GAN)提出了一个新颖的理论框架。我们揭示了先前分析的基本缺陷,通过错误地对GANS的训练计划进行了错误的建模,该缺陷受到定义不定的鉴别梯度的约束。我们克服了这个问题,该问题阻碍了对GAN培训的原则研究,并考虑了歧视者的体系结构在我们的框架内解决它。为此,我们通过其神经切线核为歧视者提供了无限宽度神经网络的理论。我们表征了训练有素的判别器,以实现广泛的损失,并建立网络的一般可怜性属性。由此,我们获得了有关生成分布的融合的新见解,从而促进了我们对GANS训练动态的理解。我们通过基于我们的框架的分析工具包来证实这些结果,并揭示了与GAN实践一致的直觉。

比较概率分布是许多机器学习算法的关键。最大平均差异(MMD)和最佳运输距离(OT)是在过去几年吸引丰富的关注的概率措施之间的两类距离。本文建立了一些条件,可以通过MMD规范控制Wassersein距离。我们的作品受到压缩统计学习(CSL)理论的推动,资源有效的大规模学习的一般框架,其中训练数据总结在单个向量(称为草图)中,该训练数据捕获与所考虑的学习任务相关的信息。在CSL中的现有结果启发,我们介绍了H \“较旧的较低限制的等距属性(H \”较旧的LRIP)并表明这家属性具有有趣的保证对压缩统计学习。基于MMD与Wassersein距离之间的关系,我们通过引入和研究学习任务的Wassersein可读性的概念来提供压缩统计学习的保证,即概率分布之间的某些特定于特定的特定度量,可以由Wassersein界定距离。

In a series of recent theoretical works, it was shown that strongly overparameterized neural networks trained with gradient-based methods could converge exponentially fast to zero training loss, with their parameters hardly varying. In this work, we show that this "lazy training" phenomenon is not specific to overparameterized neural networks, and is due to a choice of scaling, often implicit, that makes the model behave as its linearization around the initialization, thus yielding a model equivalent to learning with positive-definite kernels. Through a theoretical analysis, we exhibit various situations where this phenomenon arises in non-convex optimization and we provide bounds on the distance between the lazy and linearized optimization paths. Our numerical experiments bring a critical note, as we observe that the performance of commonly used non-linear deep convolutional neural networks in computer vision degrades when trained in the lazy regime. This makes it unlikely that "lazy training" is behind the many successes of neural networks in difficult high dimensional tasks.

We consider the problem of estimating the optimal transport map between a (fixed) source distribution $P$ and an unknown target distribution $Q$, based on samples from $Q$. The estimation of such optimal transport maps has become increasingly relevant in modern statistical applications, such as generative modeling. At present, estimation rates are only known in a few settings (e.g. when $P$ and $Q$ have densities bounded above and below and when the transport map lies in a H\"older class), which are often not reflected in practice. We present a unified methodology for obtaining rates of estimation of optimal transport maps in general function spaces. Our assumptions are significantly weaker than those appearing in the literature: we require only that the source measure $P$ satisfies a Poincar\'e inequality and that the optimal map be the gradient of a smooth convex function that lies in a space whose metric entropy can be controlled. As a special case, we recover known estimation rates for bounded densities and H\"older transport maps, but also obtain nearly sharp results in many settings not covered by prior work. For example, we provide the first statistical rates of estimation when $P$ is the normal distribution and the transport map is given by an infinite-width shallow neural network.

Gradient descent finds a global minimum in training deep neural networks despite the objective function being non-convex. The current paper proves gradient descent achieves zero training loss in polynomial time for a deep overparameterized neural network with residual connections (ResNet). Our analysis relies on the particular structure of the Gram matrix induced by the neural network architecture. This structure allows us to show the Gram matrix is stable throughout the training process and this stability implies the global optimality of the gradient descent algorithm. We further extend our analysis to deep residual convolutional neural networks and obtain a similar convergence result.

我们证明了由例如He等人提出的广泛使用的方法。(2015年)并使用梯度下降对最小二乘损失进行训练并不普遍。具体而言,我们描述了一大批一维数据生成分布,较高的概率下降只会发现优化景观的局部最小值不好,因为它无法将其偏离偏差远离其初始化,以零移动。。事实证明,在这些情况下,即使目标函数是非线性的,发现的网络也基本执行线性回归。我们进一步提供了数值证据,表明在实际情况下,对于某些多维分布而发生这种情况,并且随机梯度下降表现出相似的行为。我们还提供了有关初始化和优化器的选择如何影响这种行为的经验结果。

Artificial neural networks are functions depending on a finite number of parameters typically encoded as weights and biases. The identification of the parameters of the network from finite samples of input-output pairs is often referred to as the \emph{teacher-student model}, and this model has represented a popular framework for understanding training and generalization. Even if the problem is NP-complete in the worst case, a rapidly growing literature -- after adding suitable distributional assumptions -- has established finite sample identification of two-layer networks with a number of neurons $m=\mathcal O(D)$, $D$ being the input dimension. For the range $D<m<D^2$ the problem becomes harder, and truly little is known for networks parametrized by biases as well. This paper fills the gap by providing constructive methods and theoretical guarantees of finite sample identification for such wider shallow networks with biases. Our approach is based on a two-step pipeline: first, we recover the direction of the weights, by exploiting second order information; next, we identify the signs by suitable algebraic evaluations, and we recover the biases by empirical risk minimization via gradient descent. Numerical results demonstrate the effectiveness of our approach.

对于函数的矩阵或凸起的正半明确度(PSD)的形状约束在机器学习和科学的许多应用中起着核心作用,包括公制学习,最佳运输和经济学。然而,存在很少的功能模型,以良好的经验性能和理论担保来强制执行PSD-NESS或凸起。在本文中,我们介绍了用于在PSD锥中的值的函数的内核平方模型,其扩展了最近建议编码非负标量函数的内核平方型号。我们为这类PSD函数提供了一个代表性定理,表明它构成了PSD函数的普遍近似器,并在限定的平等约束的情况下导出特征值界限。然后,我们将结果应用于建模凸起函数,通过执行其Hessian的核心量子表示,并表明可以因此表示任何平滑且强凸的功能。最后,我们说明了我们在PSD矩阵值回归任务中的方法以及标准值凸起回归。

深度分离结果提出了对深度神经网络过较浅的架构的好处的理论解释,建立前者具有卓越的近似能力。然而,没有已知的结果,其中更深的架构利用这种优势成为可提供的优化保证。我们证明,当数据由具有满足某些温和假设的径向对称的分布产生的数据时,梯度下降可以使用具有两层S形激活的深度2神经网络有效地学习球指示器功能,并且隐藏层固定在一起训练。由于众所周知,当使用用单层非线性的深度2网络(Safran和Shamir,2017)使用深度2网络时,球指示器难以近似于一定的重型分配,这建立了我们最好的知识,基于第一优化的分离结果,其中近似架构的近似效益在实践中可怕的。我们的证明技术依赖于随机特征方法,该方法减少了用单个神经元学习的问题,其中新工具需要在数据分布重尾时显示梯度下降的收敛。

We consider the idealized setting of gradient flow on the population risk for infinitely wide two-layer ReLU neural networks (without bias), and study the effect of symmetries on the learned parameters and predictors. We first describe a general class of symmetries which, when satisfied by the target function $f^*$ and the input distribution, are preserved by the dynamics. We then study more specific cases. When $f^*$ is odd, we show that the dynamics of the predictor reduces to that of a (non-linearly parameterized) linear predictor, and its exponential convergence can be guaranteed. When $f^*$ has a low-dimensional structure, we prove that the gradient flow PDE reduces to a lower-dimensional PDE. Furthermore, we present informal and numerical arguments that suggest that the input neurons align with the lower-dimensional structure of the problem.

了解随机梯度下降(SGD)的隐式偏见是深度学习的关键挑战之一,尤其是对于过度透明的模型,损失功能的局部最小化$ l $可以形成多种多样的模型。从直觉上讲,SGD $ \ eta $的学习率很小,SGD跟踪梯度下降(GD),直到它接近这种歧管为止,梯度噪声阻止了进一步的收敛。在这样的政权中,Blanc等人。 (2020)证明,带有标签噪声的SGD局部降低了常规术语,损失的清晰度,$ \ mathrm {tr} [\ nabla^2 l] $。当前的论文通过调整Katzenberger(1991)的想法提供了一个总体框架。它原则上允许使用随机微分方程(SDE)描述参数的限制动力学的SGD围绕此歧管的正规化效应(即“隐式偏见”)的正则化效应,这是由损失共同确定的功能和噪声协方差。这产生了一些新的结果:(1)与Blanc等人的局部分析相比,对$ \ eta^{ - 2} $ steps有效的隐性偏差进行了全局分析。 (2020)仅适用于$ \ eta^{ - 1.6} $ steps和(2)允许任意噪声协方差。作为一个应用程序,我们以任意大的初始化显示,标签噪声SGD始终可以逃脱内核制度,并且仅需要$ o(\ kappa \ ln d)$样本用于学习$ \ kappa $ -sparse $ -sparse yroverparame parametrized linearized Linear Modal in $ \ Mathbb {r}^d $(Woodworth等,2020),而GD在内核制度中初始化的GD需要$ \ omega(d)$样本。该上限是最小值的最佳,并改善了先前的$ \ tilde {o}(\ kappa^2)$上限(Haochen等,2020)。
