This paper centers around a novel concept proposed recently by researchers from the control community where the training process of a deep neural network can be considered a nonlinear dynamical system acting upon the high-dimensional weight space. Koopman operator theory (KOT), a data-driven dynamic…
Study of the nonlinear evolution deep neural network (DNN) parameters undergo during training has uncovered regimes of distinct dynamical behavior. While a detailed understanding of these phenomena has the potential to advance improvements in training efficiency and robustness, the lack of methods f…
The discovery of sparse subnetworks that are able to perform as well as full models has found broad applied and theoretical interest. While many pruning methods have been developed to this end, the naïve approach of removing parameters based on their magnitude has been found to be as robust as more…
