arXiv:2505. 18113v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Training quantized neural networks requires addressing the non-differentiable and discrete nature of the underlying optimization problem.

arXiv:2607. 03860v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The Strong Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (SLTH) asserts that sufficiently overparameterized, randomly initialized neural networks contain sparse subnetworks that, even without any training, can match the performance of a small trained network on a given dataset.

arXiv:2606. 05599v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This paper establishes a theoretical framework for the uniform convergence of smoothly activated deep neural network (DNN) estimators.

arXiv:2603. 10562v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Monotone operator equilibrium networks are implicit-layer models whose output is the unique equilibrium of a monotone operator, guaranteeing existence, uniqueness, and convergence.

arXiv:2608. 03069v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep Q-Networks (DQNs) learn value functions through bootstrapped temporal-difference updates, where future returns are approximated using a greedy maximization over next-state action values.
By Lipeng Zu, Xiaonan Zhang
arXiv:2505. 22988v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The goal of quantization is to produce a compressed model whose output distribution is as close to the original model's as possible.

arXiv:2607. 05000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Canonical quantization provides a systematic procedure for constructing quantum models from classical Hamiltonians.

arXiv:2602. 03120v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Post-Training Quantization (PTQ) is essential for deploying Large Language Models (LLMs) on memory-constrained devices, yet it renders models static and difficult to fine-tune.

arXiv:2606. 13818v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: This thesis investigates how Bayesian principles can deepen our understanding of modern deep learning systems.

arXiv:2602. 05779v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: The Edge-of-Chaos (EoC) theory developed for the random initialization of deep networks allows more efficient training by both preserving information in the initial outputs of the network and minimising exploding or vanishing gradients through characterisation of the intermediate layers as Gaussian processes.
By Emily Dent, Jared Tanner
arXiv:2606. 00289v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Quantization is a fundamental tool used to compress datasets, neural network weights, and memory usage in a range of computational tasks.
By Nathan White, Krish Singal
arXiv:2206. 04359v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: One of the fundamental challenges in the deep learning community is to theoretically understand how well a deep neural network generalizes to unseen data.
