Machine Learning for Modeling Stock Returns

Teng Andrea Xu

Throughout history, the pace of knowledge and information sharing has evolved into an unthinkable speed and media. At the end of the XVII century, in Europe, the ideas that would shape the "Age of Enlightenment" were slowly being developed in coffeehouses, ...

Benign Overfitting in Deep Neural Networks under Lazy Training

Volkan Cevher, Grigorios Chrysos, Fanghui Liu, Zhenyu Zhu

This paper focuses on over-parameterized deep neural networks (DNNs) with ReLU activation functions and proves that when the data distribution is well-separated, DNNs can achieve Bayesoptimal test error for classification while obtaining (nearly) zero-trai ...

What can linearized neural networks actually say about generalization?

Pascal Frossard, Seyed Mohsen Moosavi Dezfooli, Guillermo Ortiz Jimenez

For certain infinitely-wide neural networks, the neural tangent kernel (NTK) theory fully characterizes generalization, but for the networks used in practice, the empirical NTK only provides a rough first-order approximation. Still, a growing body of work ...

Disentangling feature and lazy training in deep neural networks

Matthieu Wyart, Mario Geiger, Stefano Spigler, Arthur Ulysse Jacot-Guillarmod

Two distinct limits for deep learning have been derived as the network width h -> infinity, depending on how the weights of the last layer scale with h. In the neural tangent Kernel (NTK) limit, the dynamics becomes linear in the weights and is described b ...

ESSOP: Efficient and Scalable Stochastic Outer Product Architecture for Deep Learning

Irem Boybat Kara, Abu Sebastian

Deep neural networks (DNNs) have surpassed human-level accuracy in a variety of cognitive tasks but at the cost of significant memory/time requirements in DNN training. This limits their deployment in energy and memory limited applications that require rea ...

Learning Activation Functions in Deep (Spline) Neural Networks

Michaël Unser, Shayan Aziznejad, Pakshal Narendra Bohra, Harshit Gupta, Joaquim Gonçalves Garcia Barreto Campos

We develop an efficient computational solution to train deep neural networks (DNN) with free-form activation functions. To make the problem well-posed, we augment the cost functional of the DNN by adding an appropriate shape regularization: the sum of the ...

Artificial neural networks can be used for Ambrosia pollen emission parameterization in COSMO-ART

Charlotte Marie Bürki

The emission parameterization is a crucial part of numerical pollen dispersion models. This paper shows that Artificial Neural Networks (ANNs) can substantially improve the performance of the Ambrosia pollen emission in numerical pollen dispersion models s ...
