arXiv:2603. 02234v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: The Strong Lottery Ticket Hypothesis (SLTH) states that large, randomly initialized neural networks contain sparse subnetworks capable of approximating a target function at initialization without training, suggesting that pruning alone is sufficient.

arXiv:2608. 12655v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: A flat training curve does not reveal whether a neural network has reached a global optimum, is locally trapped, is representation-limited, or is mismatched to its trainer.
