ICMAM 2024: Data Representation by Neural Networks: A control perspective by E. Zuazua

On Friday October 18, 2024 Prof. Enrique Zuazua will talk on “Data Representation by Neural Networks: A control perspective” at the ICMAM 2024, ICMAM Latin America 2024, a hybrid mode conference promoted by the research organisation ICMAM Latin America organized at several universities in Colombia and Mexico from October 14-18, 2024.

Abstract. In this lecture I shall present some recent work in cooperation with Dr. Kang Liu (FAU). We investigate several non-convex optimization problems involving shallow neural networks (NN), with the aim of representing data sets. The problems are convexified using a “mean-field” technique and the lack of relaxation gap is proved employing classical “representer theorems”. We also derive generalization bounds providing insight into the choice of optimal parameters. We also derive efficient numerical algorithms, and analyze the analogy with classical control problems for parabolic equations.
