The Spectrum of the Fisher Information Matrix of a Single-Hidden-Layer Neural Network

Neural Information Processing Systems

An important factor contributing to the success of deep learning has been the remarkable ability to optimize large neural networks using simple first-order optimization algorithms like stochastic gradient descent. While the efficiency of such methods depends crucially on the local curvature of the loss surface, very little is actually known about how this geometry depends on network architecture and hyperparameters. In this work, we extend a recently-developed framework for studying spectra of nonlinear random matrices to characterize an important measure of curvature, namely the eigenvalues of the Fisher information matrix. We focus on a single-hidden-layer neural network with Gaussian data and weights and provide an exact expression for the spectrum in the limit of infinite width. We find that linear networks suffer worse conditioning than nonlinear networks and that nonlinear networks are generically non-degenerate. We also predict and demonstrate empirically that by adjusting the nonlinearity, the spectrum can be tuned so as to improve the efficiency of first-order optimization methods.





MassSpecGym: A benchmark for the discovery and identification of molecules Roman Bushuiev

Neural Information Processing Systems

Despite decades of progress in machine learning applications for predicting molecular structures from MS/MS spectra, the development of new methods is severely hindered by the lack of standard datasets and evaluation protocols. To address this problem, we propose MassSpecGym - the first comprehensive benchmark for the discovery and identification of molecules from MS/MS data.

These metals are supposed as Titanium. Detailed parameters of the acquisition geometry can be found in Table 1. This sample is 3D cone-beam data. The estimated spectrum is illustrated in Figure 1 ( Right). 2 2 Additional Details of Baselines In our experiments, we compare our proposed method against eight baseline MAR approaches. Specifically, it learns the prior distribution of metal-free CT images with a generative model in order to infer the lost sinogram in the metal-affected regions.



Mitigating the Popularity Bias of Graph Collaborative Filtering: A Dimensional Collapse Perspective

Neural Information Processing Systems

Graph Collaborative Filtering (GCF) is widely used in personalized recommendation systems. However, GCF suffers from a fundamental problem where features tend to occupy the embedding space inefficiently (by spanning only a low-dimensional subspace).
