arXiv:2405. 02369v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: In the past decade, many successful networks are on novel architectures, which almost exclusively use the same type of neurons.

arXiv:2606. 00557v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: To understand how a neural network (NN) functions and makes predictions, it has become increasingly clear that analyzing only the input domain is insufficient -- one must also examine its internal inference mechanisms to capture the complete picture.
