arXiv:2606. 02993v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Understanding how structured internal structure emerges during neural network training is central to the study of deep learning.
arXiv:2606. 28486v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The emergence of low-dimensional structures in the spectra of neural network weight matrices is a common empirical feature of trained models, but the dynamical origin of this phenomenon during learning remains an open problem.
arXiv:2606. 04476v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In this paper, we study the gradient descent dynamics for jointly training both layers of a one-hidden-layer ReLU network to fit a linear target function.
arXiv:2511. 01938v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Grokking is a puzzling phenomenon in neural networks where full generalization occurs only after a substantial delay following the complete memorization of the training data.
arXiv:2311. 02960v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Over the past decade, deep learning has proven to be a highly effective tool for learning meaningful features from raw data.
arXiv:2607. 21366v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Deep neural networks encode complex representations, but deconstructing this internal knowledge remains a challenge.
We investigate how each component of the Transformer feedforward block architecture design determines how much rank survives across depth at initialization. We reinterpret skip connections and normalization, long understood as controlling magnitude, as mechanisms for preserving gradient rank across depth, since the very matrix multiplications and nonlinear activations that make the network expressive also reduce the rank.
arXiv:2601. 19019v3 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Neural population activity in sensory cortex is organized on low-dimensional manifolds, but why such manifolds arise and what determines their geometry remain unclear.
arXiv:2608. 08350v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The initialisation of deep neural networks determines whether information and gradients can propagate across depth, yet a unified theory connecting these properties to learning dynamics remains elusive.
arXiv:2607. 14018v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: We investigate how each component of the Transformer feedforward block architecture design determines how much rank survives across depth at initialization.
arXiv:2606. 06624v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: In the current era of deep learning and especially generative models, there is significant investment in training very large generative models.
arXiv:2602. 24012v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Contrastive learning has become a cornerstone of modern representation learning, allowing training with massive unlabeled data for both task-specific and general (foundation) models.
arXiv:2512. 20963v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Diffusion models excel at generating high-quality, diverse samples, yet they risk memorizing training data when overfit to the training objective.
