报告主题： Composing Global Optimizers to Reasoning Tasks via Algebraic Objects in Neural Nets 报告日期： 1 0月30日（周三）10:30-11:30 报告要点: We prove rich algebraic structures of the solution space for 2-layer neural networks with quadratic activation and L2 loss, trained on reasoning tasks in Abelian group (e.g., modular addition). Such a rich structure enables analytical construction of global optimal solutions from partial solutions that only satisfy part of the loss, despite its high nonlinearity. We coin the framework as CoGO (Composing Global Optimizers). Specifically, we show that the weight space over different numbers of hidden nodes of the 2-layer network is equipped with a semi-ring algebraic structure, and the loss function to be optimized consists of monomial potentials, which are ring homomorphism, allowing partial solutions to be composed into global ones by ring addition and multiplication. Our experiments show that around 95% of the solutions ob ………………………………
