The Modern Mathematics of Deep Learning

Compact parameter set

Penguin learning project

The project uses 342 complete Palmer penguin records: 240 training-pool and 102 held-out rows. The selected training rows determine feature scaling and model parameters. Source CSV

This project trains weights with softmax, unlike the homepage lab, which uses nearest species averages. Same penguin measurements; different classification methods. Predictions can differ.

Model classes and structure · Describe families of rules, their size and structural properties.

The project supplies finite observations and fitted parameters. A held-out sample does not establish population bounds or prove a theorem.

Consider this concept alongside the project; its source assumptions may differ. These observations do not prove a theorem.

Input: 12 × 2; Held-out evaluation: 102 · #58 · 40.6 mm, 193 mm. Known answer: Adélie; Prediction: Adélie · [≈0.7383, ≈0.2444, ≈0.01737].

Used in these source sections: 1.2 Learning from examples

A compact parameter set can restrict the real parameter vectors allowed for a network.

Compactness can help ensure that a continuous objective attains its minimum.

Source formula example

{\mathcal{P}}\subset{\mathbb{R}}^{P(N)}

illustration · This finite set is compact; a finite enumeration does not characterize every compact parameter set.

Symbols

$𝒫$: A compact subset of parameter space.
$P(N)$: The number of real network parameters.

Source formula example

This source example uses its own inputs and assumptions. Editing it does not change the project.

Edit a value or the code, then run the example. This is a finite demonstration, not a proof of the paper’s theorem.
