Rare dense solutions clusters in asymmetric binary perceptrons -- local entropy via fully lifted RDT

2025-06-24 · Mihailo Stojnic

We study classical asymmetric binary perceptron (ABP) and associated \emph{local entropy} (LE) as potential source of its algorithmic hardness. Isolation of \emph{typical} ABP solutions in SAT phase seemingly suggests a universal algorithmic hardness. Paradoxically, efficient algorithms do exist even for constraint densities $\alpha$ fairly close but at a finite distance (\emph{computational gap}) from the capacity. In recent years, existence of rare large dense clusters and magical ability of fast algorithms to find them have been posited as the conceptual resolution of this paradox. Monotonicity or breakdown of the LEs associated with such \emph{atypical} clusters are predicated to play a key role in their thinning-out or even complete defragmentation. Invention of fully lifted random duality theory (fl RDT) [90,93,94] allows studying random structures \emph{typical} features. A large deviation upgrade, sfl LD RDT [96,97], moves things further and enables \emph{atypical} features characterizations as well. Utilizing the machinery of [96,97] we here develop a generic framework to study LE as an ABP's atypical feature. Already on the second level of lifting we discover that the LE results are closely matching those obtained through replica methods. For classical zero threshold ABP, we obtain that LE breaks down for $\alpha$ in $(0.77,0.78)$ interval which basically matches $\alpha\sim 0.75-0.77$ range that currently best ABP solvers can handle and effectively indicates that LE's behavior might indeed be among key reflections of the ABP's computational gaps presumable existence.

Binary perceptron: efficient algorithms can find solutions in a rare well-connected cluster

2021-11-04 · Emmanuel Abbe, Shuangping Li, Allan Sly

It was recently shown that almost all solutions in the symmetric binary perceptron are isolated, even at low constraint densities, suggesting that finding typical solutions is hard. In contrast, some algorithms have been…

On the role of synaptic stochasticity in training low-precision neural networks

2017-10-26 · Carlo Baldassi, Federica Gerace, Hilbert J. Kappen, Carlo Lucibello 외

Stochasticity and limited precision of synaptic weights in neural network models are key aspects of both biological and hardware modeling of learning processes. Here we show that a neural network model with stochastic bi…

SMYRF - Efficient Attention using Asymmetric Clustering

2020-12-01 · NeurIPS 2020 12 · Giannis Daras, Nikita Kitaev, Augustus Odena, Alexandros G. Dimakis

We propose a novel type of balanced clustering algorithm to approximate attention. Attention complexity is reduced from $O(N^2)$ to $O(N \log N)$, where N is the sequence length. Our algorithm, SMYRF, uses Locality Sensi…

Adaptive Feature Discrimination and Denoising for Asymmetric Text Matching

2022-10-01 · COLING 2022 10 · Yan Li, Chenliang Li, Junjun Guo

Asymmetric text matching has becoming increasingly indispensable for many downstream tasks (e.g., IR and NLP). Here, asymmetry means that the documents involved for matching hold different amounts of information, e.g., a…
