This paper investigates the role of nonlinearity in deep neural networks by employing novel approaches from physics and nonlinear sciences. The authors utilize the Koopman operator, extended dynamic mode decomposition, and tensor-train format to analyze learned neural networks for classification problems. Their results demonstrate that replacing nonlinear middle layers with a Koopman matrix yields sufficient accuracy in numerical experiments, even when pruning the Koopman matrix at high compression ratios. This suggests the potential of extracting features from neural networks using the Koopman operator approach.

This paper helps us understand how deep learning works better. Researchers want to know if nonlinearity is really important for deep neural networks. They use special math tools from physics and other fields to study this. By analyzing learned neural networks, they find that you can replace some of the nonlinearity with something simpler, while still getting good results.
