When Bias Meets Trainability: Connecting Theories of Initialization

Alberto Bassi, Marco Baity-Jesi, Aurelien Lucchi +2

The statistical properties of deep neural networks (DNNs) at initialization play an important role to comprehend their trainability and the intrinsic architectural biases they poss…

Where You Place the Norm Matters: From Prejudiced to Neutral Initializations

Emanuele Francazi, Francesco Pinto, Aurelien Lucchi +1

Normalization layers were introduced to stabilize and accelerate training, yet their influence is critical already at initialization, where they shape signal propagation and output…

Modeling Node Exposure for Community Detection in Networks

Sameh Othman, Johannes Schulz, Marco Baity-Jesi +1

In community detection, datasets often suffer a sampling bias for which nodes which would normally have a high affinity appear to have zero affinity. This happens for example when…
