We consider the training process of a neural network as a dynamical system acting on the high-dimensional weight space. Each epoch is an application of the map induced by the optimization algorithm and the loss function. Using this induced map, we can apply observables on the weight space and measure their evolution. The evolution of the observables are given by the Koopman operator associated with the induced dynamical system. We use the spectrum and modes of the Koopman operator to realize the above objectives. Our methods can help to, a priori, determine the network depth; determine if we have a bad initialization of the network weights, allowing a restart before training too long; speeding up the training time. Additionally, our methods help enable noise rejection and improve robustness. We show how the Koopman spectrum can be used to determine the number of layers required for the architecture. Additionally, we show how we can elucidate the convergence versus non-convergence of the training process by monitoring the spectrum, in particular, how the existence of eigenvalues clustering around 1 determines when to terminate the learning process. We also show how using Koopman modes we can selectively prune the network to speed up the training procedure. Finally, we show that incorporating loss functions based on negative Sobolev norms can allow for the reconstruction of a multi-scale signal polluted by very large amounts of noise.

Recent work has attempted to interpret residual networks (ResNets) as one step of a forward Euler discretization of an ordinary differential equation, focusing mainly on syntactic algebraic similarities between the two systems. Discrete dynamical integrators of continuous dynamical systems, however, have a much richer structure. We first show that ResNets fail to be meaningful dynamical integrators in this richer sense. We then demonstrate that neural network models can learn to represent continuous dynamical systems, with this richer structure and properties, by embedding them into higher-order numerical integration schemes, such as the Runge Kutta schemes. Based on these insights, we introduce ContinuousNet as a continuous-in-depth generalization of ResNet architectures. ContinuousNets exhibit an invariance to the particular computational graph manifestation. That is, the continuous-in-depth model can be evaluated with different discrete time step sizes, which changes the number of layers, and different numerical integration schemes, which changes the graph connectivity. We show that this can be used to develop an incremental-in-depth training scheme that improves model quality, while significantly decreasing training time. We also show that, once trained, the number of units in the computational graph can even be decreased, for faster inference with little-to-no accuracy drop.
We present an efficient coresets-based neural network compression algorithm that sparsifies the parameters of a trained fully-connected neural network in a manner that provably approximates the networks output. Our approach is based on an importance sampling scheme that judiciously defines a sampling distribution over the neural network parameters, and as a result, retains parameters of high importance while discarding redundant ones. We leverage a novel, empirical notion of sensitivity and extend traditional coreset constructions to the application of compressing parameters. Our theoretical analysis establishes guarantees on the size and accuracy of the resulting compressed network and gives rise to generalization bounds that may provide new insights into the generalization properties of neural networks. We demonstrate the practical effectiveness of our algorithm on a variety of neural network configurations and real-world data sets.
Deep learning is a group of exciting new technologies for neural networks. Through a combination of advanced training techniques and neural network architectural components, it is now possible to create neural networks that can handle tabular data, images, text, and audio as both input and output. Deep learning allows a neural network to learn hierarchies of information in a way that is like the function of the human brain. This course will introduce the student to classic neural network structures, Convolution Neural Networks (CNN), Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM), Gated Recurrent Neural Networks (GRU), General Adversarial Networks (GAN), and reinforcement learning. Application of these architectures to computer vision, time series, security, natural language processing (NLP), and data generation will be covered. High-Performance Computing (HPC) aspects will demonstrate how deep learning can be leveraged both on graphical processing units (GPUs), as well as grids. Focus is primarily upon the application of deep learning to problems, with some introduction to mathematical foundations. Readers will use the Python programming language to implement deep learning using Google TensorFlow and Keras. It is not necessary to know Python prior to this book; however, familiarity with at least one programming language is assumed.
Verifying correctness of deep neural networks (DNNs) is challenging. We study a generic reachability problem for feed-forward DNNs which, for a given set of inputs to the network and a Lipschitz-continuous function over its outputs, computes the lower and upper bound on the function values. Because the network and the function are Lipschitz continuous, all values in the interval between the lower and upper bound are reachable. We show how to obtain the safety verification problem, the output range analysis problem and a robustness measure by instantiating the reachability problem. We present a novel algorithm based on adaptive nested optimisation to solve the reachability problem. The technique has been implemented and evaluated on a range of DNNs, demonstrating its efficiency, scalability and ability to handle a broader class of networks than state-of-the-art verification approaches.
We provide an overview of the Koopman operator analysis for a class of partial differential equations describing relaxation of the field variable to a stable stationary state. We introduce Koopman eigenfunctionals of the system and use the notion of conjugacy to develop spectral expansion of the Koopman operator. For linear systems such as the diffusion equation, the Koopman eigenfunctionals can be expressed as linear functionals of the field variable. The notion of inertial manifolds is shown to correspond to joint zero level sets of Koopman eigenfunctionals, and the notion of isostables is defined as the level sets of the slowest decaying Koopman eigenfunctional. Linear diffusion equation, nonlinear Burgers equation, and nonlinear phase-diffusion equation are analyzed as examples.
