Exploring the Function Space of Deep-Learning Machines

arXiv:1708.01422 · doi:10.1103/PhysRevLett.120.248301

Abstract

The function space of deep-learning machines is investigated by studying growth in the entropy of functions of a given error with respect to a reference function, realized by a deep-learning machine. Using physics-inspired methods we study both sparsely and densely-connected architectures to discover a layer-wise convergence of candidate functions, marked by a corresponding reduction in entropy when approaching the reference function, gain insight into the importance of having a large number of layers, and observe phase transitions as the error increases.

New examples of networks with ReLU activation and convolutional networks are included
