Teacher Geometry Shapes Learnability in Teacher-Student Networks

Kai J. Sandbrink, Flavio Martinelli, Alexander van Meegen +2

Teacher-student systems, in which a teacher neural network generates training labels so that a student neural network can learn to implement the same function, are widely used as a…

Data Augmentation Techniques to Reverse-Engineer Neural Network Weights from Input-Output Queries

Alexander Beiser, Flavio Martinelli, Wulfram Gerstner +1

Network weights can be reverse-engineered given enough informative samples of a network's input-output function. In a teacher-student setup, this translates into collecting a datas…

Flat Channels to Infinity in Neural Loss Landscapes

Flavio Martinelli, Alexander Van Meegen, Berfin Şimşek +2

The loss landscapes of neural networks contain minima and saddle points that may be connected in flat regions or appear in isolation. We identify and characterize a special structu…

Expand-and-Cluster: Parameter Recovery of Neural Networks

Flavio Martinelli, Berfin Simsek, Wulfram Gerstner +1

Can we identify the weights of a neural network by probing its input-output mapping? At first glance, this problem seems to have many solutions because of permutation, overparamete…
