Functional dimension of feedforward ReLU neural networks

2022-09-08 · J. Elisenda Grigsby, Kathryn Lindsey, Robert Meyerhoff, Chenxi Wu

It is well-known that the parameterized family of functions representable by fully-connected feedforward neural networks with ReLU activation function is precisely the class of piecewise linear functions with finitely many pieces. It is less well-known that for every fixed architecture of ReLU neural network, the parameter space admits positive-dimensional spaces of symmetries, and hence the local functional dimension near any given parameter is lower than the parametric dimension. In this work we carefully define the notion of functional dimension, show that it is inhomogeneous across the parameter space of ReLU neural network functions, and continue an investigation - initiated in [14] and [5] - into when the functional dimension achieves its theoretical maximum. We also study the quotient space and fibers of the realization map from parameter space to function space, supplying examples of fibers that are disconnected, fibers upon which functional dimension is non-constant, and fibers upon which the symmetry group acts non-transitively.

On Functional Dimension and Persistent Pseudodimension

2024-10-22 · J. Elisenda Grigsby, Kathryn Lindsey

For any fixed feedforward ReLU neural network architecture, it is well-known that many different parameter settings can determine the same function. It is less well-known that the degree of this redundancy is inhomogeneo…

Complete Identification of Deep ReLU Neural Networks by Many-Valued Logic

2026-01-30 · Yani Zhang, Helmut Bölcskei arxiv

Deep ReLU neural networks admit nontrivial functional symmetries: vastly different architectures and parameters (weights and biases) can realize the same function. We address the complete identification problem -- given …

Activation Functions for "A Feedforward Unitary Equivariant Neural Network"

2024-11-17 · Pui-Wai Ma

In our previous work [Ma and Chan (2023)], we presented a feedforward unitary equivariant neural network. We proposed three distinct activation functions tailored for this network: a softsign function with a small residu…

Hidden symmetries of ReLU networks

2023-06-09 · J. Elisenda Grigsby, Kathryn Lindsey, David Rolnick

The parameter space for any fixed architecture of feedforward ReLU neural networks serves as a proxy during training for the associated class of functions - but how faithful is this representation? It is known that many …

Do ReLU Networks Have An Edge When Approximating Compactly-Supported Functions?

2022-04-24 · Anastasis Kratsios, Behnoosh Zamanlooy

We study the problem of approximating compactly-supported integrable functions while implementing their support set using feedforward neural networks. Our first main result transcribes this "structured" approximation pro…
