This paper addresses the analysis and design of quadratic neural networks, which have been recently introduced in the literature, and their applications to regression, classification, system identification and control of dynamical systems.…

Areas of computational mechanics such as uncertainty quantification and optimization usually involve repeated evaluation of numerical models that represent the behavior of engineering systems. In the case of complex nonlinear systems…

The success of deep neural networks hinges on our ability to accurately and efficiently optimize high-dimensional, non-convex functions. In this paper, we empirically investigate the loss functions of state-of-the-art networks, and how…

This work investigates the exponential stability of neural networks (NNs) systems with time delays. By considering orthogonal polynomials with weighted terms, a new weighted integral inequality is presented. This inequality extend several…

Adversarial neural networks solve many important problems in data science, but are notoriously difficult to train. These difficulties come from the fact that optimal weights for adversarial nets correspond to saddle points, and not…

Deep learning uses neural networks which are parameterised by their weights. The neural networks are usually trained by tuning the weights to directly minimise a given loss function. In this paper we propose to re-parameterise the weights…

This paper introduces a new method to train recurrent neural networks using dynamical trajectory-based optimization. The optimization method utilizes a projected gradient system (PGS) and a quotient gradient system (QGS) to determine the…

Stability is a fundamental property of dynamical systems, yet to this date it has had little bearing on the practice of recurrent neural networks. In this work, we conduct a thorough investigation of stable recurrent models. Theoretically,…

Despite the widespread practical success of deep learning methods, our theoretical understanding of the dynamics of learning in deep neural networks remains quite sparse. We attempt to bridge the gap between the theory and practice of deep…

The paper investigates sufficient conditions on a differential inclusion which guarantee that the origin is a finite time stable equilibrium, namely a weak local one, a weak global one or a strong local one. The analysis relies on the…

In continual learning, networks confront a trade-off between stability and plasticity when trained on a sequence of tasks. To bolster plasticity without sacrificing stability, we propose a novel training algorithm called LRFR. This approach…

Existing analyses of neural network training often operate under the unrealistic assumption of an extremely small learning rate. This lies in stark contrast to practical wisdom and empirical studies, such as the work of J. Cohen et al.…

Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are wide-spread machine learning tools for modeling sequential and time series data. They are notoriously hard to train because their loss gradients backpropagated in time tend to saturate or diverge during…

Graph Neural Networks (GNNs) have achieved remarkable success across diverse tasks on graph-structured data, primarily through the use of learned weights in message passing layers. In this paper, we demonstrate that random weights can be…

There has been great interest in enhancing the robustness of neural network classifiers to defend against adversarial perturbations through adversarial training, while balancing the trade-off between robust accuracy and standard accuracy.…

In this paper, we introduce a novel concept for learning of the parameters in a neural network. Our idea is grounded on modeling a learning problem that addresses a trade-off between (i) satisfying local objectives at each node and (ii)…

As an emerging artificial intelligence technology, graph neural networks (GNNs) have exhibited promising performance across a wide range of graph-related applications. However, information exchanges among neighbor nodes in GNN pose new…

In the recent past, a property of neural training trajectories in weight-space had been isolated, that of "local elasticity" (denoted as $S_{\rm rel}$). Local elasticity attempts to quantify the propagation of the influence of a sampled…

Deep neural networks, particularly those employing Rectified Linear Units (ReLU), are often perceived as complex, high-dimensional, non-linear systems. This complexity poses a significant challenge to understanding their internal learning…

Beyond the traditional neural network training methods based on gradient descent and its variants, state estimation techniques have been proposed to determine a set of ideal weights from a control-theoretic perspective. Hence, the concept…
