A priori generalization error for two-layer ReLU neural network through minimum norm solution

Zhi-Qin John Xu, Jiwei Zhang, Yaoyu Zhang +1

We focus on estimating \emph{a priori} generalization error of two-layer ReLU neural networks (NNs) trained by mean squared error, which only depends on initial parameters and the…

Explicitizing an Implicit Bias of the Frequency Principle in Two-layer Neural Networks

Yaoyu Zhang, Zhi-Qin John Xu, Tao Luo +1

It remains a puzzle that why deep neural networks (DNNs), with more parameters than samples, often generalize well. An attempt of understanding this puzzle is to discover implicit…

A type of generalization error induced by initialization in deep neural networks

Yaoyu Zhang, Zhi-Qin John Xu, Tao Luo +1

How initialization and loss function affect the learning of a deep neural network (DNN), specifically its generalization error, is an important problem in practice. In this work, b…

Frequency Principle: Fourier Analysis Sheds Light on Deep Neural Networks

Zhi-Qin John Xu, Yaoyu Zhang, Tao Luo +2

We study the training process of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs) from the Fourier analysis perspective. We demonstrate a very universal Frequency Principle (F-Principle) -- DNNs often…
