A Unified Matrix-Spectral Framework for Stability and Interpretability in Deep Learning

The paper introduces a unified matrix‑spectral framework that treats deep neural networks as data‑dependent products of linear operators, enabling the analysis of stability and interpretability through spectral quantities. It defines a Global Matrix Stability Index that aggregates spectral information from Jacobians, parameter gradients, Neural Tangent Kernel operators, and loss Hessians into a single stability scale, and shows that spectral entropy provides a more realistic measure of sensitivity than worst‑case bounds. Experiments on MNIST, CIFAR‑10, and CIFAR‑100 demonstrate that modest spectral regularization can significantly improve attribution stability without large changes to global spectral summaries.

Multi-stage neural operator learning with application for convolutions

The paper introduces two multi-stage neural operator learning frameworks—Deep Collocation Neural Operator (DCNO) and Deep Galerkin Neural Operator (DGNO)—for efficiently computing convolution integrals. DCNO is a supervised method that iteratively refines operator approximations by learning residuals from data pairs, while DGNO is an unsupervised approach that uses the weak form of a PDE residual when the operator can be represented by a PDE. Both frameworks build basis operators across multiple training stages, yielding markedly higher accuracy than one-shot learning and achieving near machine‑precision results for convolution problems, with significant efficiency gains for repeated queries or parametric variations.

GradientStabilizer:Fix the Norm, Not the Gradient

arXiv:2502. 17055v5 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Training instability in modern deep learning systems is frequently triggered by rare but extreme gradient-norm spikes, which can induce oversized parameter updates, corrupt optimizer state, and lead to slow recovery or divergence.

StablePDENet: Enhancing Neural Operator Stability through Physics-Informed Residual-Sensitivity Regularization

The paper introduces StablePDENet, a physics-informed adversarial training framework that regularizes the residual sensitivity of neural operators to improve stability against input perturbations. The method formulates operator learning as a min–max optimization, where a physics-based projected‑gradient adversary generates perturbations and the outer objective combines the attacked physics loss with a normalized residual‑sensitivity penalty. Experiments on benchmark problems show that StablePDENet outperforms PI‑DeepONet and its adversarial variant in accuracy under adversarial attacks while maintaining competitive performance on clean data, and it also enhances generalization and highlights the distinction between model sensitivity and intrinsic operator ill‑conditioning.
