Networks of disparate phenomena-- be it the global ecology, human social institutions, within the human brain, or in micro-scale protein interactions-- exhibit broadly consistent architectural features. To explain this, we propose a new…
Empirical complex systems must differentially respond to external perturbations and, at the same time, internally distribute information to coordinate their components. While networked backbones help with the latter, they limit the…
While the optimization problem behind deep neural networks is highly non-convex, it is frequently observed in practice that training deep networks seems possible without getting stuck in suboptimal points. It has been argued that this is…
