Hyperbolic Neural Networks++

Hyperbolic spaces, which have the capacity to embed tree structures without distortion owing to their exponential volume growth, have recently been applied to machine learning to better capture the hierarchical nature of data. In this study, we reconsider a way to generalize the fundamental components of neural networks in a single hyperbolic geometry model, and propose novel methodologies to construct a multinomial logistic regression, fully-connected layers, convolutional layers, and attention mechanisms under a unified mathematical interpretation, without increasing the parameters. A series of experiments show the parameter efficiency of our methods compared to a conventional hyperbolic component, and stability and outperformance over their Euclidean counterparts.
