arXiv:2607. 20811v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In spite of the fundamental role of neural networks in contemporary machine learning research, our understanding of the computational complexity of optimally training neural networks remains incomplete even when dealing with the simplest kinds of activation functions.
In spite of the fundamental role of neural networks in contemporary machine learning research, our understanding of the computational complexity of optimally training neural networks remains incomplete even when dealing with the simplest kinds of activation functions. Indeed, while there has been a number of very recent results that establish ever-tighter lower bounds for the problem under linear and ReLU activation functions, less progress has been made towards the identification of novel polynomial-time tractable network architectures.
arXiv:2606. 23858v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: A primary challenge in AI safety is the existence of adversarial examples -- slightly distorted inputs that cause a neural network (NN) to misclassify.
arXiv:2607. 27000v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Optimization in non-convex neural network models is strongly influenced by the geometry of the solution space: sparse, isolated, point-like clusters are typically algorithmically inaccessible, whereas wide and flat regions can be found efficiently despite being relatively rare.
arXiv:2607. 28954v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Branch and Bound (BaB) aims to achieve complete verification of neural networks by adaptively partitioning the problem and applying off-the-shelf verifiers to subproblems.
