      This thesis discusses novel principles to improve the theoretical analyses of a class of methods, aiming to provide theoretically driven yet practically useful methods. The thesis focuses on a class of methods, called ...

    • Deep Learning without Poor Local Minima 

      Kawaguchi, Kenji (2016-05-23)
      In this paper, we prove a conjecture published in 1989 and also partially address an open problem announced at the Conference on Learning Theory (COLT) 2015. For an expected loss function of a deep nonlinear neural network, ...
