This paper tackles the challenge of providing robustness guarantees for neural networks by studying the expressiveness of multi-neuron relaxations. The authors show that these relaxations can be used to encode complex functions, such as the max function in Rd, and exactly bound ReLU networks. They also demonstrate that certain transformations or partitioning techniques can turn incomplete verifiers into complete ones, offering improved worst-case complexity. The paper provides a comprehensive characterization of multi-neuron relaxations and their limitations in neural network certification.

This research helps us understand how to make sure artificial intelligence systems are safe and reliable. It’s about finding ways to test these complex networks so we can trust them not to make mistakes or cause harm. The scientists studied a special kind of math problem called “multi-neuron relaxations” that helps solve this challenge. They showed that these methods can be powerful, but also tricky to use correctly. By understanding how they work and what their limits are, we can create better AI systems that we can rely on.
