• Abstract summary: This paper defines upper and lower bounds for neural network widths, which are informed by the polytope structure of the dataset in question. We develop an algorithm to investigate a converse situation where the polytope structure of a dataset can be inferred from its corresponding trained neural networks. It is established that popular datasets such as MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, and CIFAR10 can be efficiently encapsulated using no more than two polytopes with a small number of faces.

• Abstract: Current theoretical and empirical research in neural networks suggests that complex datasets require large network architectures for thorough classification, yet the precise nature of this relationship remains unclear. This paper tackles this issue by defining upper and lower bounds for neural network widths, which are informed by the polytope structure of the dataset in question. We also delve into the application of these principles to simplicial complexes and specific manifold shapes, explaining how the requirement for network width varies in accordance with the geometric complexity of the dataset. Moreover, we develop an algorithm to investigate a converse situation where the polytope structure of a dataset can be inferred from its corresponding trained neural networks. Through our algorithm, it is established that popular datasets such as MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, and CIFAR10 can be efficiently encapsulated using no more than two polytopes with a small number of faces.

  We study how the topology of feature embedding space changes as it passes through the layers of a well-trained deep neural network (DNN) through Betti numbers. We demonstrate that as depth increases, a topologically complicated dataset is transformed into a simple one, resulting in Betti numbers attaining their lowest possible value.

  We first show that a three-layer neural network can be designed to approximate an indicator function over a compact set. This is then extended to a simplicial complex, deriving width upper bounds based on its topological structure. We prove the universal approximation property of three-layer ReLU networks using our topological approach.

By assigning learnable parameters to the edges which reflect the magnitude of connections, the learning process can be performed in a differentiable manner. This learning process is compatible with existing networks and owns adaptability to larger search spaces and different tasks.

It is possible to characterize the instances of the input data with respect to both the predicted label and the specific (linear) transformation used to perform predictions. Preliminary tests on the MNIST dataset show that our method can group input instances with regard to their similarity in the internal representation of the neural network.
