CrossGMN: Graph Metanetworks for Cross-Architecture Weight-Space Transformations

CrossGMN introduces a graph metanetwork that processes a trained source network and an initialized target network simultaneously, enabling equivariant cross‑architecture weight‑space transformations. By preserving symmetry through cross‑network message passing, CrossGMN can refine target network initializations while remaining invariant to source permutations and equivariant to target permutations. Experiments demonstrate that CrossGMN accelerates knowledge distillation, transfers across datasets without retraining, and unifies compression from diverse source architectures into a common target architecture.

Sublinearly Structured Deep Neural Networks Achieve Feature Learning Consistency for Compositional Functions

Over the past decade, deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved remarkable success on complex machine-learning tasks, yet the theoretical foundations of their performance remain incomplete. From a statistical viewpoint, a natural question is: can DNNs attain feature-learning and prediction consistency comparable to that of classical models?

Breaking the Scale Barrier: One-Shot Knowledge Transfer via Frequency Transform

arXiv:2603. 07523v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Transferring knowledge by fine-tuning large-scale pre-trained networks has become a standard paradigm for downstream tasks, yet the knowledge of a pre-trained model is tightly coupled with monolithic architecture, which restricts flexible reuse across models of varying scales.
