From deep to Shallow: Equivalent Forms of Deep Networks in Reproducing Kernel Krein Space and Indefinite Support Vector Machines
share
In this paper we explore a connection between deep networks and learning in reproducing kernel Krein space. Our approach is based on the concept of push-forward - that is, taking a fixed non-linear transform on a linear projection and converting it to a linear projection on the output of a fixed non-linear transform, aka pushing the weights forward through the non-linearity. Applying this repeatedly from the input to the output of a deep network, the weights can be progressively "pushed" to the output layer, resulting in a flat network that has the form of a fixed non-linear map (whose form is determined by the structure of the deep network) followed by a linear projection determined by the weight matrices - that is, we take a deep network and convert it to an equivalent (indefinite) support vector machine. We then investigate the implications of this transformation for capacity control and generalisation, and provide a bound on generalisation error in the deep network in terms of generalisation error in reproducing kernel Krein space.
