A new role for circuit expansion for learning in neural networks

no code implementations19 Aug 2020 Julia Steinberg, Madhu Advani, Haim Sompolinsky

We find that sparse expansion of the input of a student perceptron network both increases its capacity and improves the generalization performance of the network when learning a noisy rule from a teacher perceptron when these expansions are pruned after learning.

Minnorm training: an algorithm for training over-parameterized deep neural networks

no code implementations3 Jun 2018 Yamini Bansal, Madhu Advani, David D. Cox, Andrew M. Saxe

To solve this constrained optimization problem, our method employs Lagrange multipliers that act as integrators of error over training and identify `support vector'-like examples.

On the Information Bottleneck Theory of Deep Learning

1 code implementation ICLR 2018 Andrew Michael Saxe, Yamini Bansal, Joel Dapello, Madhu Advani, Artemy Kolchinsky, Brendan Daniel Tracey, David Daniel Cox

The practical successes of deep neural networks have not been matched by theoretical progress that satisfyingly explains their behavior.

An equivalence between high dimensional Bayes optimal inference and M-estimation

no code implementations NeurIPS 2016 Madhu Advani, Surya Ganguli

In this work we demonstrate, when the signal distribution and the likelihood function associated with the noise are both log-concave, that optimal MMSE performance is asymptotically achievable via another M-estimation procedure.

Statistical Mechanics of High-Dimensional Inference

no code implementations18 Jan 2016 Madhu Advani, Surya Ganguli

Our analysis uncovers fundamental limits on the accuracy of inference in high dimensions, and reveals that widely cherished inference algorithms like maximum likelihood (ML) and maximum-a posteriori (MAP) inference cannot achieve these limits.
