• Authors: Piotr Kicki, Mete Ozay and Piotr Skrzypczy\'nski
• Abstract summary: A new $G$-invariant transformation module produces a $G$-invariant latent representation of the input data. This latent representation is then processed with a multi-layer perceptron in the network. We prove the universality of the proposed architecture, discuss its properties and highlight its computational and memory efficiency.

• Abstract: We introduce a method to design a computationally efficient $G$-invariant neural network that approximates functions invariant to the action of a given permutation subgroup $G \leq S_n$ of the symmetric group on input data. The key element of the proposed network architecture is a new $G$-invariant transformation module, which produces a $G$-invariant latent representation of the input data. This latent representation is then processed with a multi-layer perceptron in the network. We prove the universality of the proposed architecture, discuss its properties and highlight its computational and memory efficiency. Theoretical considerations are supported by numerical experiments involving different network configurations, which demonstrate the effectiveness and strong generalization properties of the proposed method in comparison to other $G$-invariant neural networks.

  We present a systematic method to induce a generalized neural network and its right inverse operator, called the ridgelet transform. Since the ridgelet transform is an inverse, it can describe the arrangement of parameters for the network to represent a target function. We present a new simple proof of the universality by using Schur's lemma in a unified manner covering a wide class of networks.

  This work studies the design of neural networks that can process the weights or gradients of other neural networks. We focus on the permutation symmetries that arise in the weights of deep feedforward networks because hidden layer neurons have no inherent order. In our experiments, we find that permutation equivariant neural functionals are effective on a diverse set of tasks.

  We show that transformation-invariant and distance-preserving initial representations are sufficient to achieve transformation invariance.

We prove that TinvNN can strictly guarantee transformation invariance, being general and flexible enough to be combined with the existing neural networks.
