Generalization in Deep Learning

16 Oct 2017  ·  Kenji Kawaguchi, Leslie Pack Kaelbling, Yoshua Bengio ·

This paper provides theoretical insights into why and how deep learning can generalize well, despite its large capacity, complexity, possible algorithmic instability, nonrobustness, and sharp minima, responding to an open question in the literature. We also discuss approaches to provide non-vacuous generalization guarantees for deep learning. Based on theoretical observations, we propose new open problems and discuss the limitations of our results.
