ISyE – Finding the needle in the haystack: How gradient descent converges to low-dimensional solutions in over-parameterized models. January 29 @ 12:00 PM - 1:00 PM 2188 Mechanical Engineering Building 1513 University Avenue, Madison, WI, United States In contemporary machine learning, realistic models exhibit increasing nonconvexity and overwhelming overparameterization. This nonconvex nature often leads to numerous undesirable or "spurious" local solutions, while overparameterization exacerbates the risk of... Free
