Model-brain comparison using inter-animal transforms
Imran Thobani, Javier Sagastuy-Brena, Aran Nayebi +3
Artificial neural network models have emerged as promising mechanistic models of the brain. However, there is little consensus on the correct method for comparing model activations…
Neural Mechanics: Symmetry and Broken Conservation Laws in Deep Learning Dynamics
Daniel Kunin, Javier Sagastuy-Brena, Surya Ganguli +2
Understanding the dynamics of neural network parameters during training is one of the key challenges in building a theoretical foundation for deep learning. A central obstacle is t…
Two Routes to Scalable Credit Assignment without Weight Symmetry
Daniel Kunin, Aran Nayebi, Javier Sagastuy-Brena +3
The neural plausibility of backpropagation has long been disputed, primarily for its use of non-local weight transport the biologically dubious requirement that one neuron inst…
