arXiv:2510. 19399v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Spectral bias, the tendency of neural networks to learn low-frequency features first, is a well-known issue with many training algorithms for physics-informed neural networks (PINNs).
Physics-informed neural networks (PINNs) often fail to accurately resolve partial differential equations (PDEs) with high-frequency or multi-scale solutions, as well as strongly nonlinear problems. Two factors underlie this difficulty: spectral bias, the tendency of neural networks to underfit high-frequency features; and representation-coefficient coupling, the entanglement of representation learning and coefficient fitting within a single nonconvex optimization objective.
We study the gradient flow dynamics of diagonal linear networks for regression tasks under infinitesimal initialization. Extending Theorem 1 from Pesme & Flammarion (2023), we generalize the analysis to both deep diagonal linear networks and a broader class of two-layer diagonal linear networks (as defined in Definition 4.

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. 16575v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Deep neural networks (DNNs) have achieved remarkable success in scientific computing, yet they often suffer from spectral bias in capturing oscillatory and multiscale behaviors.
