@andrewgwils queued up to watch this, epiplexity looks super interesting

Doing one thing really well carries so much more value than doing five things at an average level.

@andrewgwils I'll have a look. I've long said, that is since I began in NN 1987-1994, that there's no such thing as generalization.

I had a great time presenting the "Foundations of Modern AI" at the Berkeley Deep Learning for Science Summer School. The talk covered a prescriptive theory of generalization and epiplexity. Video now online! https://t.co/muxf74g8mo

With NeurIPS registration sold out weeks before even author notification, I'm worried the conference will simply be unrecognizable. Basically no community regulars will have registered -- they won't have been using agents to register within minutes of opening.

As much as AI is impressively progressing, current systems are appallingly poor at conducting end-to-end scientific research. 1/4

@andrewgwils I am a fan of soft inductive bias (like those employed in PAC-Bayes, union bounds, their ilk). I think the challenge is accounting for the last O(1)% of generalization using it, at least in vision models. This was the goal of attack that Karolina and I started back

The textbooks don't need to be rewritten -- they just needed to pay attention to what was already known about generalization, decades ago! I've had thoughts about this for 12 years, and people always ask for the paper -- so I finally wrote it. Thankful to many for feedback! 12/12

We also further consider overparametrization and double descent. Deep learning of course _is_ different, and much is not well understood. To this end, we particularly highlight representation learning, mode connectivity, and universal learning. Much more in the paper! 11/12 https

Benign overfitting describes perfectly fitting a mix of signal and noise, but still generalizing respectably. Like with the polynomial, we can exactly reproduce this behaviour with a Gaussian process and bound it with PAC-Bayes through the marginal likelihood. 8/12 https://t.co/I

These frameworks provide a prescription for generalization, in line with soft inductive biases: embrace a maximally flexible hypothesis space, combined with a compression bias. 9/12

Computing the bounds is also very simple: (i) train a model to find hypothesis h*, using any optimizer; (ii) measure the empirical risk R(h*) (e.g., training loss); (iii) measure the filesize of the stored model. 10/12

We can use a Solomonoff prior, which represents a maximally overparametrized model, but assigns exponentially higher weights to simpler (shorter) programs with lower Kolmogorov complexity, leading to non-vacuous generalization bounds on even billion parameter neural nets. 7/12 h

This model also performs well over a range of data sizes and complexities. Notably, a central observation in "understanding DL requires rethinking generalization" was a neural net can fit noise perfectly, but still generalize on structured data; but this polynomial can too. 5/12

While this behaviour cannot be explained by Rademacher complexity or VC dimension (which measures a model's ability to fit noise), it _can_ be described by decades-old countable hypothesis bounds with a prior, which do not penalize the size of the hypothesis space. 6/12 https://t

Let's consider the simplest possible example: a polynomial. We’ll use an arbitrarily high-order polynomial with order-dependent regularization that penalizes the norms of higher order coefficients more. This model scales its complexity as needed, and can also fit pure noise! 4/12

Rather than restricting the solutions a model can represent, specify a preference for certain solutions over others, through _soft_ inductive biases. This approach guides us towards structure where it exists, without significant penalty where it doesn't. 3/12 https://t.co/y7flCxm

What makes deep learning different? Not overparametrization, benign overfitting, or double descent, which can be reproduced with other models and explained with old generalization frameworks. Understanding DL doesn't require rethinking generalization -- and it never did! 2/12

My new paper "Deep Learning is Not So Mysterious or Different": https://t.co/AgHdSQkals. Generalization behaviours in deep learning can be intuitively understood through a notion of soft inductive biases, and formally characterized with countable hypothesis bounds! 1/12 https://t
