Scaling Laws from Sequential Feature Recovery: A Solvable Hierarchical Model

Arie Wortsman-Zurich, Hugo Tabanelli, Yatin Dandi +2

We propose a simple mechanism by which scaling laws emerge from feature learning in multi-layer networks. We study a high-dimensional hierarchical target that is a globally high-de…

A Noise Sensitivity Exponent Controls Large Statistical-to-Computational Gaps in Single- and Multi-Index Models

Leonardo Defilippis, Florent Krzakala, Bruno Loureiro +1

Understanding when learning is statistically possible yet computationally hard is a central challenge in high-dimensional statistics. In this work, we investigate this question in…

Deep Learning of Compositional Targets with Hierarchical Spectral Methods

Hugo Tabanelli, Yatin Dandi, Luca Pesce +1

Why depth yields a genuine computational advantage over shallow methods remains a central open question in learning theory. We study this question in a controlled high-dimensional…

Optimal scaling laws in learning hierarchical multi-index models

Leonardo Defilippis, Florent Krzakala, Bruno Loureiro +1

In this work, we provide a sharp theory of scaling laws for two-layer neural networks trained on a class of hierarchical multi-index targets, in a genuinely representation-limited…

Single-Head Attention in High Dimensions: A Theory of Generalization, Weights Spectra, and Scaling Laws

Fabrizio Boncoraglio, Vittorio Erba, Emanuele Troiani +3

Trained attention layers exhibit striking and reproducible spectral structure of the weights, including low-rank collapse, bulk deformation, and isolated spectral outliers, yet the…

Computational Thresholds in Multi-Modal Learning via the Spiked Matrix-Tensor Model

Hugo Tabanelli, Pierre Mergny, Lenka Zdeborova +1

We study the recovery of multiple high-dimensional signals from two noisy, correlated modalities: a spiked matrix and a spiked tensor sharing a common low-rank structure. This sett…
