SUMMARY:CMSA Math-Science Literature Lecture: Immersions of manifolds and homotopy theory
DESCRIPTION:Ralph Cohen (Stanford University) \nTitle: Immersions of manifolds and homotopy theory \nAbstract: The interface between the study of the topology of differentiable manifolds and algebraic topology has been one of the richest areas of work in topology since the 1950’s. In this talk I will focus on one aspect of that interface: the problem of studying embeddings and immersions of manifolds using homotopy theoretic techniques. I will discuss the history of this problem\, going back to the pioneering work of Whitney\, Thom\, Pontrjagin\, Wu\, Smale\, Hirsch\, and others. I will discuss the historical applications of this homotopy theoretic perspective\, going back to Smale’s eversion of the 2-sphere in 3-space. I will then focus on the problems of finding the smallest dimension Euclidean space into which every n-manifold embeds or immerses. The embedding question is still very much unsolved\, and the immersion question was solved in the 1980’s. I will discuss the homotopy theoretic techniques involved in the solution of this problem\, and contributions in the 60’s\, 70’s and 80’s of Massey\, Brown\, Peterson\, and myself. I will also discuss questions regarding the best embedding and immersion dimensions of specific manifolds\, such has projective spaces. Finally\, I will end by discussing more modern approaches to studying spaces of embeddings due to Goodwillie\, Weiss\, and others. This talk will be geared toward a general mathematical audience. \nTalk chair: Michael Hopkins \nVideo

SUMMARY:CMSA Math-Science Literature Lecture: Kunihiko Kodaira and complex manifolds
DESCRIPTION:Yujiro Kawamata (University of Tokyo) \nTitle: Kunihiko Kodaira and complex manifolds \nAbstract: Kodaira’s motivation was to generalize the theory of Riemann surfaces in Weyl’s book to higher dimensions.  After quickly recalling the chronology of Kodaira\, I will review some of Kodaira’s works in three sections on topics of harmonic analysis\, deformation theory and compact complex surfaces.  Each topic corresponds to a volume of Kodaira’s collected works in three volumes\, of which I will cover only tiny parts. \nTalk chair: Baohua Fu \nVideo

SUMMARY:Triple Descent and a Fine-Grained Bias-Variance Decomposition
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Jeffrey Pennington\, Google Brain \nTitle: Triple Descent and a Fine-Grained Bias-Variance Decomposition \nAbstract: Classical learning theory suggests that the optimal generalization performance of a machine learning model should occur at an intermediate model complexity\, striking a balance between simpler models that exhibit high bias and more complex models that exhibit high variance of the predictive function. However\, such a simple trade-off does not adequately describe the behavior of many modern deep learning models\, which simultaneously attain low bias and low variance in the heavily overparameterized regime. Recent efforts to explain this phenomenon theoretically have focused on simple settings\, such as linear regression or kernel regression with unstructured random features\, which are too coarse to reveal important nuances of actual neural networks. In this talk\, I will describe a precise high-dimensional asymptotic analysis of Neural Tangent Kernel regression that reveals some of these nuances\, including non-monotonic behavior deep in the overparameterized regime. I will also present a novel bias-variance decomposition that unambiguously attributes these surprising observations to particular sources of randomness in the training procedure.

SUMMARY:Generalization bounds for rational self-supervised learning algorithms\, or "Understanding generalizations requires rethinking deep learning"
DESCRIPTION:Speakers: Boaz Barak and Yamini Bansal\, Harvard University Dept. of Computer Science \nTitle: Generalization bounds for rational self-supervised learning algorithms\, or “Understanding generalizations requires rethinking deep learning” \nAbstract: The generalization gap of a learning algorithm is the expected difference between its performance on the training data and its performance on fresh unseen test samples. Modern deep learning algorithms typically have large generalization gaps\, as they use more parameters than the size of their training set. Moreover the best known rigorous bounds on their generalization gap are often vacuous. In this talk we will see a new upper bound on the generalization gap of classifiers that are obtained by first using self-supervision to learn a complex representation of the (label free) training data\, and then fitting a simple (e.g.\, linear) classifier to the labels. Such classifiers have become increasingly popular in recent years\, as they offer several practical advantages and have been shown to approach state-of-art results. We show that (under the assumptions described below) the generalization gap of such classifiers tends to zero as long as the complexity of the simple classifier is asymptotically smaller than the number of training samples. We stress that our bound is independent of the complexity of the representation that can use an arbitrarily large number of parameters. Our bound assuming that the learning algorithm satisfies certain noise-robustness (adding small amount of label noise causes small degradation in performance) and rationality (getting the wrong label is not better than getting no label at all) conditions that widely (and sometimes provably) hold across many standard architectures. We complement this result with an empirical study\, demonstrating that our bound is non-vacuous for many popular representation-learning based classifiers on CIFAR-10 and ImageNet\, including SimCLR\, AMDIM and BigBiGAN. The talk will not assume any specific background in machine learning\, and should be accessible to a general mathematical audience. Joint work with Gal Kaplun. \n

SUMMARY:Some exactly solvable models for machine learning via Statistical physics
DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Florent Krzakala\, EPFL \nTitle: Some exactly solvable models for machine learning via Statistical physics \nAbstract: The increasing dimensionality of data in the modern machine learning age presents new challenges and opportunities. The high dimensional settings allow one to use powerful asymptotic methods from probability theory and statistical physics to obtain precise characterizations and develop new algorithmic approaches. Statistical mechanics approaches\, in particular\, are very well suited for such problems. Will give examples of recent works in our group that build on powerful methods of statistical physics of disordered systems to analyze some relevant questions in machine learning and neural networks\, including overparameterization\, kernel methods\, and the behavior gradient descent algorithm in a high dimensional non-convex landscape.
