Grokking through the Lens of Minimum-Norm Interpolation

Gil Kur, Ileana Rugina, Clémentine Carla Juliette Dominé +1

Grokking shows that fitting the training data and learning the underlying signal can occur at very different stages. However, existing theories offer limited quantitative insight i…

-JEPA Spectral Anti-Collapse Regularization for Self-Supervised Learning

Berker Demirel, Clémentine Dominé, Valentino Maiorca +3

Joint-embedding self-supervised learning typically combines an invariance objective across augmented views with additional mechanisms to prevent representational collapse. These ob…

Optimal Representation Size: High-Dimensional Analysis of Pretraining and Linear Probing

Valentina Njaradi, Clémentine Dominé, Rachel Swanson +2

Learning to generalise from limited data is a fundamental challenge for both artificial and biological systems. A common strategy is to extract reusable structure from abundant unl…

A Theory of How Pretraining Shapes Inductive Bias in Fine-Tuning

Nicolas Anguita, Francesco Locatello, Andrew M. Saxe +4

Pretraining and fine-tuning are central stages in modern machine learning systems. In practice, feature learning plays an important role across both stages: deep neural networks le…

A Theory of Initialisation's Impact on Specialisation

Devon Jarvis, Sebastian Lee, Clémentine Carla Juliette Dominé +2

Prior work has demonstrated a consistent tendency in neural networks engaged in continual learning tasks, wherein intermediate task similarity results in the highest levels of cata…

Get rich quick: exact solutions reveal how unbalanced initializations promote rapid feature learning

Daniel Kunin, Allan Raventós, Clémentine Dominé +4

While the impressive performance of modern neural networks is often attributed to their capacity to efficiently extract task-relevant features from data, the mechanisms underlying…
