• Abstract summary: We introduce entangled residual mappings to generalize the structure of the residual connections. An entangled residual mapping replaces the identity skip connections with specialized entangled mappings. We show that while entangled mappings can preserve the iterative refinement of features across various deep models, they influence the representation learning process in convolutional networks.

• Abstract: Residual mappings have been shown to perform representation learning in the first layers and iterative feature refinement in higher layers. This interplay, combined with their stabilizing effect on the gradient norms, enables them to train very deep networks. In this paper, we take a step further and introduce entangled residual mappings to generalize the structure of the residual connections and evaluate their role in iterative learning representations. An entangled residual mapping replaces the identity skip connections with specialized entangled mappings such as orthogonal, sparse, and structural correlation matrices that share key attributes (eigenvalues, structure, and Jacobian norm) with identity mappings. We show that while entangled mappings can preserve the iterative refinement of features across various deep models, they influence the representation learning process in convolutional networks differently than attention-based models and recurrent neural networks. In general, we find that for CNNs and Vision Transformers entangled sparse mapping can help generalization while orthogonal mappings hurt performance. For recurrent networks, orthogonal residual mappings form an inductive bias for time-variant sequences, which degrades accuracy on time-invariant tasks.

  We introduce a theoretical framework for the evolution of the kernel sequence, which measures the similarity between the hidden representation for two different inputs. For nonlinear activations, the kernel sequence converges globally to a unique fixed point, which can correspond to similar representations depending on the activation and network architecture. This work provides new insights into the implicit biases of deep neural networks and how architectural choices influence the evolution of representations across layers.

  Associative memory has been a prominent candidate for the computation performed by the massively recurrent neocortical networks. We combine a recurrent attractor network with a feedforward network that learns distributed representations using an unsupervised Hebbian-Bayesian learning rule. We demonstrate that the recurrent attractor component implements associative memory when trained on the feedforward-driven internal (hidden) representations.
