Spectral Perturbation of the Empirical Fisher Information Matrix under Weight Quantization

arXiv.org Machine Learning

The Fisher Information Matrix (FIM) is the canonical local measure of the curvature of a statistical model's log-likelihood surface, and its dominant eigenvalue λmax quantifies the worst-case sensitivity of the model's output distribution to infinitesimal parameter perturbation [1, 2]. The spectral properties of the FIM of neural networks have been studied directly in the random matrix theory literature. Pennington and Worah [4] derive the limiting spectral density of the FIM of a single-hidden-layer network in the high-dimensional asymptotic regime, building on the broader programme of analysing neural network Hessian and kernel spectra via random matrix methods [5, 6], with subsequent work extending these techniques to deeper architectures and non-asymptotic regimes [7, 8]. These results characterize the typical (bulk and edge) spectral behaviour of the FIM for a fixed network and a random or structured input ensemble. This paper studies a complementary question, posed as a perturbation problem rather than an asymptotic-spectrum problem: how does the dominant eigenvalue of a fixed, evaluated empirical FIM change under two specific structured perturbations of the underlying distribution? The first perturbation is a change in the conditioning input away from a reference (in-distribution) ensemble. The second is a structured additive perturbation of the model's own parameters by finite-precision quantization noise -- a perturbation of independent mathematical interest, since it falls outside the i.i.d.-input asymptotic regime treated in the random matrix literature cited above, and instead concerns a fixed network whose parameters, not its input distribution, are perturbed by a noise process with a specific, analytically tractable structure (Definition 4.1). To our knowledge, this parameterperturbation question for the FIM's dominant eigenvalue, under either source of departure, has not been previously formalized.

How to survive a drone attack: As fears grow that WWIII could reach Britain, scientists reveal the safest place to take shelter during an air strike

Sir Keir Starmer has tried to keep the UK out of the fight, but recent strikes on an RAF base in Cyprus suggest this may not be possible if the war continues to escalate. Although the chances of a direct attack on British soil remain low, experts have warned that Iran's fleet of Shahed drones could strike without warning. Now, scientists have revealed the best way to stay safe if a drone attack were to pummel the UK. Each of Iran's Shahed drones carries a 90kg high-explosive payload, which is enough to collapse a building with a direct hit.
