    New Technologies in Mathematics Seminar Speaker: Yiannis Vlassopoulos, Athena Research Center Title: ReLU and Softplus neural nets as zero-sum, turn-based, stopping games Abstract: Neural networks are for the most part treated as black boxes. In an effort to begin elucidating the mathematical structure they encode, we will explain how ReLU neural nets can be interpreted as […]
