By introducing sign constraints on the weights, this paper proposes sign constrained rectifier networks (SCRNs), whose training can be solved efficiently by the well known majorization-minimization (MM) algorithms. We prove that the proposed two-hidden-layer SCRNs, which exhibit negative weights in the second hidden layer and negative weights in the output layer, are capable of separating any two (or more) disjoint pattern sets. Furthermore, the proposed two-hidden-layer SCRNs can decompose the patterns of each class into several clusters so that each cluster is convexly separable from all the patterns from the other classes. This provides a means to learn the pattern structures and analyse the discriminant factors between different classes of patterns.

Recent works have examined how deep neural networks, which can solve a variety of difficult problems, incorporate the statistics of training data to achieve their success. However, existing results have been established only in limited settings. In t
his work, we derive the layerwise weight dynamics of infinite-width neural networks with nonlinear activations trained by gradient descent. We show theoretically that weight updates are aligned with input correlations from intermediate layers weighted by error, and demonstrate empirically that the result also holds in finite-width wide networks. The alignment result allows us to formulate backpropagation-free learning rules, named Align-zero and Align-ada, that theoretically achieve the same alignment as backpropagation. Finally, we test these learning rules on benchmark problems in feedforward and recurrent neural networks and demonstrate, in wide networks, comparable performance to backpropagation.
We introduce a method to train Binarized Neural Networks (BNNs) - neural networks with binary weights and activations at run-time. At training-time the binary weights and activations are used for computing the parameters gradients. During the forward
pass, BNNs drastically reduce memory size and accesses, and replace most arithmetic operations with bit-wise operations, which is expected to substantially improve power-efficiency. To validate the effectiveness of BNNs we conduct two sets of experiments on the Torch7 and Theano frameworks. On both, BNNs achieved nearly state-of-the-art results over the MNIST, CIFAR-10 and SVHN datasets. Last but not least, we wrote a binary matrix multiplication GPU kernel with which it is possible to run our MNIST BNN 7 times faster than with an unoptimized GPU kernel, without suffering any loss in classification accuracy. The code for training and running our BNNs is available on-line.
In contrast to traditional weight optimization in a continuous space, we demonstrate the existence of effective random networks whose weights are never updated. By selecting a weight among a fixed set of random values for each individual connection,
our method uncovers combinations of random weights that match the performance of traditionally-trained networks of the same capacity. We refer to our networks as slot machines where each reel (connection) contains a fixed set of symbols (random values). Our backpropagation algorithm spins the reels to seek winning combinations, i.e., selections of random weight values that minimize the given loss. Quite surprisingly, we find that allocating just a few random values to each connection (e.g., 8 values per connection) yields highly competitive combinations despite being dramatically more constrained compared to traditionally learned weights. Moreover, finetuning these combinations often improves performance over the trained baselines. A randomly initialized VGG-19 with 8 values per connection contains a combination that achieves 91% test accuracy on CIFAR-10. Our method also achieves an impressive performance of 98.2% on MNIST for neural networks containing only random weights.
In this paper, we introduce transformations of deep rectifier networks, enabling the conversion of deep rectifier networks into shallow rectifier networks. We subsequently prove that any rectifier net of any depth can be represented by a maximum of a
number of functions that can be realized by a shallow network with a single hidden layer. The transformations of both deep rectifier nets and deep residual nets are conducted to demonstrate the advantages of the residual nets over the conventional neural nets and the advantages of the deep neural nets over the shallow neural nets. In summary, for two rectifier nets with different depths but with same total number of hidden units, the corresponding single hidden layer representation of the deeper net is much more complex than the corresponding single hidden representation of the shallower net. Similarly, for a residual net and a conventional rectifier net with the same structure except for the skip connections in the residual net, the corresponding single hidden layer representation of the residual net is much more complex than the corresponding single hidden layer representation of the conventional net.
AdaBelief, one of the current best optimizers, demonstrates superior generalization ability compared to the popular Adam algorithm by viewing the exponential moving average of observed gradients. AdaBelief is theoretically appealing in that it has a
data-dependent $O(sqrt{T})$ regret bound when objective functions are convex, where $T$ is a time horizon. It remains however an open problem whether the convergence rate can be further improved without sacrificing its generalization ability. %on how to exploit strong convexity to further improve the convergence rate of AdaBelief. To this end, we make a first attempt in this work and design a novel optimization algorithm called FastAdaBelief that aims to exploit its strong convexity in order to achieve an even faster convergence rate. In particular, by adjusting the step size that better considers strong convexity and prevents fluctuation, our proposed FastAdaBelief demonstrates excellent generalization ability as well as superior convergence. As an important theoretical contribution, we prove that FastAdaBelief attains a data-dependant $O(log T)$ regret bound, which is substantially lower than AdaBelief. On the empirical side, we validate our theoretical analysis with extensive experiments in both scenarios of strong and non-strong convexity on three popular baseline models. Experimental results are very encouraging: FastAdaBelief converges the quickest in comparison to all mainstream algorithms while maintaining an excellent generalization ability, in cases of both strong or non-strong convexity. FastAdaBelief is thus posited as a new benchmark model for the research community.
