We address the problem of improving the performance and in particular the sample complexity of deep neural networks by enforcing and guaranteeing invariances to symmetry transformations rather than learning them from data. Group-equivariant…

Numerous invariant (or equivariant) neural networks have succeeded in handling invariant data such as point clouds and graphs. However, a generalization theory for the neural networks has not been well developed, because several essential…

We present a general framework for symmetrizing an arbitrary neural-network architecture and making it equivariant with respect to a given group. We build upon the proposals of Kim et al. (2023); Kaba et al. (2023) for symmetrization, and…

In this article, we propose a topological model to encode partial equivariance in neural networks. To this end, we introduce a class of operators, called P-GENEOs, that change data expressed by measurements, respecting the action of certain…

There has been much recent interest in designing neural networks (NNs) with relaxed equivariance, which interpolate between exact equivariance and full flexibility for consistent performance gains. In a separate line of work, structured…

In this work we propose a new neural network architecture that efficiently implements and learns general purpose set-equivariant functions. Such a function f maps a set of entities x = {x1, . . . , xn} from one domain to a set of same…

Image restoration is an inherently ill posed inverse problem. Equivariant networks that embed geometric symmetry priors can mitigate this ill posedness and improve performance. However, current understanding of the relationship between…

Full waveform inversion (FWI) is a high-resolution subsurface imaging technique, but its effectiveness is limited by challenges such as noise contamination, sparse acquisition, and artifacts from multiparameter coupling. To address these…

We propose an efficient algorithm to visualise symmetries in neural networks. Typically, models are defined with respect to a parameter space, where non-equal parameters can produce the same input-output map. Our proposed method, GENNI,…

Modern deep models have massive parameter sizes, leading to high inference-time memory usage that limits practical deployment. Parameter sharing, a form of structured compression, effectively reduces redundancy, but existing approaches…

Quantum neural network architectures that have little-to-no inductive biases are known to face trainability and generalization issues. Inspired by a similar problem, recent breakthroughs in machine learning address this challenge by…

We use deep learning to model interactions across two or more sets of objects, such as user-movie ratings, protein-drug bindings, or ternary user-item-tag interactions. The canonical representation of such interactions is a matrix (or a…

This paper explores the characterization of equivariant linear layers for representations of permutations and related groups. Unlike traditional approaches, which address these problems using parameter-sharing, we consider an alternative…

Invariant and equivariant networks have been successfully used for learning images, sets, point clouds, and graphs. A basic challenge in developing such networks is finding the maximal collection of invariant and equivariant linear layers.…

We develop a theory of category-equivariant neural networks (CENNs) that unifies group/groupoid-equivariant networks, poset/lattice-equivariant networks, graph and sheaf neural networks. Equivariance is formulated as naturality in a…

The study of $G$-equivariant operators is of great interest to explain and understand the architecture of neural networks. In this paper we show that each linear $G$-equivariant operator can be produced by a suitable permutant measure,…

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have made significant progress, but often suffer from fairness issues, as deep models typically show distinct accuracy differences among certain subgroups (e.g., males and females). Existing research addresses…

We construct and evaluate group-equivariant neural networks for the prediction of the two-dimensional $Q$-tensor order parameter of nematic liquid crystals from synthetically generated microscopic textures. Seven architectures, equivariant…

Group equivariance (e.g. SE(3) equivariance) is a critical physical symmetry in science, from classical and quantum physics to computational biology. It enables robust and accurate prediction under arbitrary reference transformations. In…

Incorporating symmetry as an inductive bias into neural network architecture has led to improvements in generalization, data efficiency, and physical consistency in dynamics modeling. Methods such as CNNs or equivariant neural networks use…
