This study investigates the mean-field flow for learning subspace-sparse polynomials using stochastic gradient descent and two-layer neural networks. The researchers explore how input distributions affect the learnability of target functions, focusing on the interplay between activation function expressiveness and task complexity. By establishing a necessary condition for SGD-learnability, they provide insights into the optimization process, demonstrating that specific conditions can lead to exponential loss decay.
Low GrooveSquid.com (original content) Low Difficulty Summary
This research looks at how we can use computers to learn about special kinds of math problems called subspace-sparse polynomials. They use a type of neural network and a way of updating the network’s weights called stochastic gradient descent. The researchers found a rule that says whether or not we can learn these math problems, depending on the problem itself and how well the computer is set up to solve it.
