Explicit regularization and implicit bias in deep network classifiers trained with the square loss

Tomaso Poggio, Qianli Liao

Deep ReLU networks trained with the square loss have been observed to perform well in classification tasks. We provide here a theoretical justification based on analysis of the ass…

Hierarchically Compositional Tasks and Deep Convolutional Networks

Arturo Deza, Qianli Liao, Andrzej Banburski +1

The main success stories of deep learning, starting with ImageNet, depend on deep convolutional networks, which on certain tasks perform significantly better than traditional shall…

Theoretical Issues in Deep Networks: Approximation, Optimization and Generalization

Tomaso Poggio, Andrzej Banburski, Qianli Liao

While deep learning is successful in a number of applications, it is not yet well understood theoretically. A satisfactory theoretical characterization of deep learning however, is…

Theory III: Dynamics and Generalization in Deep Networks

Andrzej Banburski, Qianli Liao, Brando Miranda +4

The key to generalization is controlling the complexity of the network. However, there is no obvious control of complexity -- such as an explicit regularization term -- in the trai…

Biologically-plausible learning algorithms can scale to large datasets

Will Xiao, Honglin Chen, Qianli Liao +1

The backpropagation (BP) algorithm is often thought to be biologically implausible in the brain. One of the main reasons is that BP requires symmetric weight matrices in the feedfo…

A Surprising Linear Relationship Predicts Test Performance in Deep Networks

Qianli Liao, Brando Miranda, Andrzej Banburski +2

Given two networks with the same training loss on a dataset, when would they have drastically different test losses and errors? Better understanding of this question of generalizat…
