Deep neural networks come in many sizes and architectures. The choice of architecture, in conjunction with the dataset and learning algorithm, is commonly understood to affect the learned neural representations. Yet, recent results have…
Neural Networks sequentially build high-level features through their successive layers. We propose here a new neural network model where each layer is associated with a set of candidate mappings. When an input is processed, at each layer,…
This paper investigates the foundations of deep learning through insight of geometry, algebra and differential calculus. At is core, artificial intelligence relies on assumption that data and its intrinsic structure can be embedded into…
Machine learning is advancing towards a data-science approach, implying a necessity to a line of investigation to divulge the knowledge learnt by deep neuronal networks. Limiting the comparison among networks merely to a predefined…
In this paper the lightface $\Pi^{1}_{1}$-Comprehension axiom is shown to be proof-theoretically strong even over $\mbox{RCA}_{0}^{*}$, and we calibrate the proof-theoretic ordinals of weak fragments of the theory $\mbox{ID}_{1}$ of…
Proof search has been used to specify a wide range of computation systems. In order to build a framework for reasoning about such specifications, we make use of a sequent calculus involving induction and co-induction. These proof principles…
The goal of this thesis is to improve our understanding of the internal mechanisms by which deep artificial neural networks create meaningful representations and are able to generalize. We focus on the challenge of characterizing the…
We investigate the computational properties of basic mathematical notions pertaining to $\mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R}$-functions and subsets of $\mathbb{R}$, like finiteness, countability, (absolute) continuity, bounded variation,…
A new class of functions is presented. The structure of the algorithm, particularly the selection criteria (branching), is used to define the fundamental property of the new class. The most interesting property of the new functions is that…
Although a plethora of architectural variants for deep classification has been introduced over time, recent works have found empirical evidence towards similarities in their training process. It has been hypothesized that neural networks…
We introduce a notion of computable randomness for infinite sequences that generalises the classical version in two important ways. First, our definition of computable randomness is associated with imprecise probability models, in the sense…
While deep learning has achieved remarkable success, there is no clear explanation about why it works so well. In order to discuss this question quantitatively, we need a mathematical framework that explains what learning is in the first…
Drawing inspiration from a recent paper of Heuberger, Krenn, and Lipnik, we define the class of strongly k-recursive sequences. We show that every k-automatic sequence is strongly $k$-recursive, therefore k-recursive, and discuss that the…
We propose a novel framework seamlessly providing key properties of both neural nets (learning) and symbolic logic (knowledge and reasoning). Every neuron has a meaning as a component of a formula in a weighted real-valued logic, yielding a…
After a more than decade-long period of relatively little research activity in the area of recurrent neural networks, several new developments will be reviewed here that have allowed substantial progress both in understanding and in…
The regularization and output consistency behavior of dropout and layer-wise pretraining for learning deep networks have been fairly well studied. However, our understanding of how the asymptotic convergence of backpropagation in deep…
In a previous paper, entitled "Structural Highness Notions," we defined several classes of degrees that are high in senses related to computable structure theory. Each class of degrees is characterized by a structural feature (e.g., an…
We study the problem of estimating the relative depth order of point pairs in a monocular image. Recent advances mainly focus on using deep convolutional neural networks (DCNNs) to learn and infer the ordinal information from multiple…
We study the relations between the notions of highness, lowness and logical depth in the setting of complexity theory. We introduce a new notion of polylog depth based on time bounded Kolmogorov complexity. We show polylog depth satisfies…
In recent years, deep artificial neural networks (including recurrent ones) have won numerous contests in pattern recognition and machine learning. This historical survey compactly summarises relevant work, much of it from the previous…
