Modern large-scale neural networks are often trained and released in multiple sizes to accommodate diverse inference budgets. To improve efficiency, recent work has explored *model upscaling*: initializing larger models from trained smaller ones in order to transfer knowledge and accelerate converge…
Several machine learning models are defined for inputs of any size, such as graphs with different numbers of nodes and point clouds with varying numbers of points. The universality properties of such any-dimensional models remain poorly understood, as universality is traditionally studied for models…
Traditional supervised learning aims to learn an unknown mapping by fitting a function to a set of input-output pairs with a fixed dimension. The fitted function is then defined on inputs of the same dimension. However, in many settings, the unknown mapping takes inputs in any dimension; examples in…
This paper considers a canonical clustering problem where one receives unlabeled samples drawn from a balanced mixture of two elliptical distributions and aims for a classifier to estimate the labels. Many popular methods including PCA and k-means require individual components of the mixture to be s…
