arXiv:2506. 08764v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep neural networks are known to suffer from exploding or vanishing gradients as depth increases, a phenomenon closely tied to the spectral behavior of the input-output Jacobian.

arXiv:2210. 16286v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: To understand the training dynamics of neural networks, prior studies have considered the mean-field limit of two-layer neural networks as the width tends to infinity, establishing theoretical guarantees for its convergence under gradient flow training as well as approximation and generalization capabilities.
We study the gradient flow dynamics of diagonal linear networks for regression tasks under infinitesimal initialization. Extending Theorem 1 from Pesme & Flammarion (2023), we generalize the analysis to both deep diagonal linear networks and a broader class of two-layer diagonal linear networks (as defined in Definition 4.
