In this research paper, the authors aim to shed light on the theoretical efficacy of Deep Learning (DL) models, specifically exploring the implicit bias that allows them to generalize effectively despite being designed for perfect data fitting. By investigating various sources of implicit bias, including weight initialization, the study examines how deep networks solve underdetermined linear systems and its impact on optimization and generalization. The findings provide insights into DL’s performance characteristics, contributing to a deeper understanding of its success.

Deep Learning models are super smart because they can learn from data and make predictions, even when it’s not perfect. But how do they do this? Scientists are trying to figure out why Deep Learning works so well, despite being designed to fit the data exactly. One thing that might help is the way we start off the learning process, by initializing the weights of our neural networks. This study looks at how different starting points can affect how well our models perform and generalize. By studying this, we can get a better understanding of why Deep Learning works so well.
