Stable parameterization of continuous and piecewise-linear functions

Michaël Unser, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon, Joaquim Gonçalves Garcia Barreto Campos

Rectified-linear-unit (ReLU) neural networks, which play a prominent role in deep learning, generate continuous and piecewise-linear (CPWL) functions. While they provide a powerful parametric representation, the mapping between the parameter and function s ...

Controlling the Complexity and Lipschitz Constant improves Polynomial Nets

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Fabian Ricardo Latorre Gomez, Zhenyu Zhu

While the class of Polynomial Nets demonstrates comparable performance to neural networks (NN), it currently has neither theoretical generalization characterization nor robustness guarantees. To this end, we derive new complexity bounds for the set of Coup ...

Learning Lipschitz-Controlled Activation Functions in Neural Networks for Plug-and-Play Image Reconstruction Methods

Michaël Unser, Dimitris Perdios, Alexis Marie Frederic Goujon, Pakshal Narendra Bohra

Ill-posed linear inverse problems are frequently encountered in image reconstruction tasks. Image reconstruction methods that combine the Plug-and-Play (PnP) priors framework with convolutional neural network (CNN) based denoisers have shown impressive per ...

Lipschitz constant estimation for Neural Networks via sparse polynomial optimization

Volkan Cevher, Fabian Ricardo Latorre Gomez, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland

We introduce LiPopt, a polynomial optimization framework for computing increasingly tighter upper bounds on the Lipschitz constant of neural networks. The underlying optimization problems boil down to either linear (LP) or semidefinite (SDP) programming. W ...

Geometric landscapes for material discovery within energy–structure–function maps

Berend Smit, Seyedmohamad Moosavi, Henglu Xu

Porous molecular crystals are an emerging class of porous materials formed by crystallisation of molecules with weak intermolecular interactions, which distinguishes them from extended nanoporous materials like metal–organic frameworks (MOFs). To aid disco ...

Efficient Proximal Mapping of the 1-path-norm of Shallow Networks

Volkan Cevher, Fabian Ricardo Latorre Gomez, Paul Thierry Yves Rolland, Shaul Nadav Hallak

We demonstrate two new important properties of the 1-path-norm of shallow neural networks. First, despite its non-smoothness and non-convexity it allows a closed form proximal operator which can be efficiently computed, allowing the use of stochastic proxi ...

Extendability of Continuous Maps Is Undecidable

We consider two basic problems of algebraic topology: the extension problem and the computation of higher homotopy groups, from the point of view of computability and computational complexity. The extension problem is the following: Given topological space ...

The Two-Well Problem For Piecewise-Affine Maps

Bernard Dacorogna

In the two-well problem we look for a map u which satisfies Dirichlet boundary conditions and whose gradient Du assumes values in SO (2) A boolean OR SO (2) B = S-A boolean OR S-B, for two given invertible matrices A, B (an element of SO (2) A is of the fo ...

Moyennabilité et courbure : G-espaces boréliens et espaces CAT(0)

Martin Anderegg

As Avez showed (in 1970), the fundamental group of a compact Riemannian manifold of nonpositive sectional curvature has exponential growth if and only if it is not flat. After several generalizations from Gromov, Zimmer, Anderson, Burger and Shroeder, the ...

Weak Finsler structures and the Funk weak metric

Marc Troyanov

We discuss general notions of metrics and of Finsler structures which we call weak metrics and weak Finsler structures. Any convex domain carries a canonical weak Finsler structure, which we call its tautological weak Finsler structure. We compute distance ...

Weak metrics on Euclidean domains

Marc Troyanov

A weak metric on a set is a function that satisfies the axioms of a metric except the symmetry and the separation axioms. The aim of this paper is to present some interesting weak metrics and to study some of their properties. In particular, we introduce a ...

Thurston's weak metric on the Teichmüller space of the torus

Marc Troyanov

We define and study a natural weak metric on the Teichmüller space of the torus. A similar metric has been defined by W. Thurston on the Teichmüller space of higher genus surfaces and our definition is motivated by Thurston's definition. However, we shall ...
