Combinatorial Regularity for Relatively Perfect Discrete Morse Gradient Vector Fields of ReLU Neural Networks

Robyn Brooks, Marissa Masden

One common function class in machine learning is the class of ReLU neural networks. ReLU neural networks induce a piecewise linear decomposition of their input space called the can…

Local and global topological complexity measures OF ReLU neural network functions

J. Elisenda Grigsby, Kathryn Lindsey, Marissa Masden

We apply a generalized piecewise-linear (PL) version of Morse theory due to Grunert-Kuhnel-Rote to define and study new local and global notions of topological complexity for fully…

Linear discriminant initialization for feed-forward neural networks

Marissa Masden, Dev Sinha

Informed by the basic geometry underlying feed forward neural networks, we initialize the weights of the first layer of a neural network using the linear discriminants which best d…
