• Abstract: Deep learning frameworks have become powerful tools for approaching scientific problems such as turbulent flow, which has wide-ranging applications. In practice, however, existing scientific machine learning approaches have difficulty fitting complex, multi-scale dynamical systems to very high precision, as required in scientific contexts. We propose using the novel multistage neural network approach with a spectrum-informed initialization to learn the residue from the previous stage, utilizing the spectral biases associated with neural networks to capture high frequency features in the residue, and successfully tackle the spectral bias of neural networks. This approach allows the neural network to fit target functions to double floating-point machine precision $O(10^{-16})$.

  Polynomial neural networks (PNNs) have been shown to be particularly effective at image generation and face recognition, where high-frequency information is critical. Previous studies have revealed that neural networks demonstrate a $textitspectral bias$ towards low-frequency functions, which yields faster learning of low-frequency components during training. Inspired by such studies, we conduct a spectral analysis of the Tangent Kernel (NTK) of PNNs. We find that the $Pi$-Net family, i.e., a recently proposed parametrization of PNNs, speeds up the

• Credit Assignment in Neural Networks through Deep Feedback Control [59.14935871979047]
  Deep Feedback Control (DFC) is a new learning method that uses a feedback controller to drive a deep neural network to match a desired output target and whose control signal can be used for credit assignment. The resulting learning rule is fully local in space and time and approximates Gauss-Newton optimization for a wide range of connectivity patterns. To further underline its biological plausibility, we relate DFC to a multi-compartment model of cortical pyramidal neurons with a local voltage-dependent synaptic plasticity rule, consistent with recent theories of dendritic processing.
