Revenge of Monosemanticity: Neuron Specialization as a New Form of Feature Learning in MLPs

Amirhesam Abedsoltan, Enric Boix-Adsera, Fivos Kalogiannis +1

Understanding how neural networks learn and organize features is central to understanding their behavior. Much existing theory of feature learning has focused on the emergence of a…

xRFM: Accurate, scalable, and interpretable feature learning models for tabular data

Daniel Beaglehole, David Holzmüller, Adityanarayanan Radhakrishnan +1

Inference from tabular data, collections of continuous and categorical variables organized into matrices, is a foundation for modern technology and science. Yet, in contrast to the…

A Gap Between the Gaussian RKHS and Neural Networks: An Infinite-Center Asymptotic Analysis

Akash Kumar, Rahul Parhi, Mikhail Belkin

Recent works have characterized the function-space inductive bias of infinite-width bounded-norm single-hidden-layer neural networks as a kind of bounded-variation-type space. This…

Toward universal steering and monitoring of AI models

Daniel Beaglehole, Adityanarayanan Radhakrishnan, Enric Boix-Adserà +1

Modern AI models contain much of human knowledge, yet understanding of their internal representation of this knowledge remains elusive. Characterizing the structure and properties…

Fast training of large kernel models with delayed projections

Amirhesam Abedsoltan, Siyuan Ma, Parthe Pandit +1

Classical kernel machines have historically faced significant challenges in scaling to large datasets and model sizes--a key ingredient that has driven the success of neural networ…

Mirror Descent on Reproducing Kernel Banach Spaces

Akash Kumar, Mikhail Belkin, Parthe Pandit

Recent advances in machine learning have led to increased interest in reproducing kernel Banach spaces (RKBS) as a more general framework that extends beyond reproducing kernel Hil…

Context-Scaling versus Task-Scaling in In-Context Learning

Amirhesam Abedsoltan, Adityanarayanan Radhakrishnan, Jingfeng Wu +1

Transformers exhibit In-Context Learning (ICL), where these models solve new tasks by using examples in the prompt without additional training. In our work, we identify and analyze…

Eigenvectors of the De Bruijn Graph Laplacian: A Natural Basis for the Cut and Cycle Space

Anthony Philippakis, Neil Mallinar, Parthe Pandit +1

We study the Laplacian of the undirected De Bruijn graph over an alphabet of order . While the eigenvalues of this Laplacian were found in 1998 by Delorme and Tillich [1], a…

Emergence in non-neural models: grokking modular arithmetic via average gradient outer product

Neil Mallinar, Daniel Beaglehole, Libin Zhu +3

Neural networks trained to solve modular arithmetic tasks exhibit grokking, a phenomenon where the test accuracy starts improving long after the model achieves 100% training accura…

Average gradient outer product as a mechanism for deep neural collapse

Daniel Beaglehole, Peter Súkeník, Marco Mondelli +1

Deep Neural Collapse (DNC) refers to the surprisingly rigid structure of the data representations in the final layers of Deep Neural Networks (DNNs). Though the phenomenon has been…

On the Nystrom Approximation for Preconditioning in Kernel Machines

Amirhesam Abedsoltan, Parthe Pandit, Luis Rademacher +1

Kernel methods are a popular class of nonlinear predictive models in machine learning. Scalable algorithms for learning kernel models need to be iterative in nature, but convergenc…
