Why and When Can Deep -- but Not Shallow -- Networks Avoid the Curse of Dimensionality: a Review

Tomaso Poggio, Hrushikesh Mhaskar, Lorenzo Rosasco +2

The paper characterizes classes of functions for which deep learning can be exponentially better than shallow learning. Deep convolutional networks are a special case of these cond…

Streaming Normalization: Towards Simpler and More Biologically-plausible Normalizations for Online and Recurrent Learning

Qianli Liao, Kenji Kawaguchi, Tomaso Poggio

We systematically explored a spectrum of normalization algorithms related to Batch Normalization (BN) and propose a generalized formulation that simultaneously solves two major lim…

View-tolerant face recognition and Hebbian learning imply mirror-symmetric neural tuning to head orientation

Joel Z. Leibo, Qianli Liao, Winrich Freiwald +2

The primate brain contains a hierarchy of visual areas, dubbed the ventral stream, which rapidly computes object representations that are both specific for object identity and rela…

Bridging the Gaps Between Residual Learning, Recurrent Neural Networks and Visual Cortex

Qianli Liao, Tomaso Poggio

We discuss relations between Residual Networks (ResNet), Recurrent Neural Networks (RNNs) and the primate visual cortex. We begin with the observation that a special type of shallo…

Learning Functions: When Is Deep Better Than Shallow

Hrushikesh Mhaskar, Qianli Liao, Tomaso Poggio

While the universal approximation property holds both for hierarchical and shallow networks, we prove that deep (hierarchical) networks can approximate the class of compositional f…
