arXiv:2606. 30388v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Delayed generalization (\ie~grokking) refers to the phenomenon in which a neural network fits its training data early in training but only begins to generalize after a prolonged delay, often through an abrupt transition.

arXiv:2501. 07400v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: We derive explicit equations governing the cumulative biases and weights in Deep Learning with ReLU activation function, based on gradient descent for the Euclidean loss in the input layer, and under the assumption that the weights are, in a precise sense, adapted to the coordinate system distinguished by the activations.
