Controlling the spectral norm of the Jacobian matrix has been shown to enhance generalization, training stability, and robustness in Convolutional Neural Networks (CNNs). Existing methods for calculating this norm either overestimate it or perform poorly with increasing input and kernel sizes. This paper introduces a new upper bound for the spectral norm of the Jacobian matrix associated with convolution operations, which is calculated using a tensor version of the spectral norm up to a constant factor. This bound is independent of input image resolution, differentiable, and can be efficiently computed during training. The authors demonstrate how this new bound can improve the performance of CNN architectures through experiments.

This paper is about making artificial intelligence models better by controlling certain numbers that affect how well they work. Right now, some methods for doing this are not very good because they get worse when the pictures or images being processed get bigger. The researchers in this paper found a new way to calculate these important numbers that is more accurate and works well even with big images. They tested their method on different AI models and showed that it can make them work better.
