Training deep neural networks for large language models (LLMs) remains computationally very expensive. To mitigate this, network growing algorithms offer potential cost savings, but their underlying mechanisms are poorly understood. In this paper, we propose a theoretical framework using backward er…
Many of the recent advances in computer vision and language models can be attributed to the success of transfer learning via the pre-training of large foundation models. However, a theoretical framework which explains this empirical success is incomplete and remains an active area of research. Flatn…
Most machine learning tasks are inherently multi-objective. This means that the learner has to come up with a model that performs well across a number of base objectives $\cL_{1}, \ldots, \cL_{p}$, as opposed to a single one. Since optimizing with respect to multiple objectives at the same t…
