This paper proposes a novel method, called symmetry-cloning, that allows general machine learning architectures to learn symmetries from group equivariant architectures. The approach involves treating symmetry induction as a supervised learning task and shows that this can enable models to capture the inductive bias of group-equivariant architectures. The authors demonstrate the effectiveness of their method on various machine learning tasks.

Machine learning has made great progress, but there’s an issue when dealing with symmetries. Normally, we relax constraints to fit specific symmetry patterns. This works, but it can get really complicated. Now, researchers have found a way to simplify things by “cloning” symmetries in models. It’s like teaching a model to recognize and use symmetry patterns from scratch. This could help machines learn more efficiently and apply what they’ve learned to new situations.
