[Title] Data Topology and Geometry-dependent Bounds on ReLU Network Widths
[Discipline] Machine Learning
[Abstract]
While deep neural networks (DNNs) have been widely used in numerous applications over the past few decades, their underlying theoretical mechanisms remain incompletely understood. In this presentation, we propose a geometrical and topological approach to understand how deep ReLU networks work on classification tasks. Specifically, we provide lower and upper bounds of neural network widths based on the geometrical and topological features of the given data manifold.  We also prove that irrespective of whether the mean square error (MSE) loss or binary cross entropy (BCE) loss is employed, the loss landscape has no local minimum.
