• Abstract: The Moore-Penrose Pseudo-inverse (PInv) serves as the fundamental solution for linear systems. In this paper, we propose a natural generalization of PInv to the nonlinear regime in general and to neural networks in particular. We introduce Surjective Pseudo-invertible Neural Networks (SPNN), a class of architectures explicitly designed to admit a tractable non-linear PInv. The proposed non-linear PInv and its implementation in SPNN satisfy fundamental geometric properties. One such property is null-space projection or "Back-Projection", $x' = x + A^\dagger(y-Ax)$, which moves a sample $x$ to its closest consistent state $x'$ satisfying $Ax=y$. We formalize Non-Linear Back-Projection (NLBP), a method that guarantees the same consistency constraint for non-linear mappings $f(x)=y$ via our defined PInv. We leverage SPNNs to expand the scope of zero-shot inverse problems. Diffusion-based null-space projection has revolutionized zero-shot solving for linear inverse problems by exploiting closed-form back-projection. We extend this method to non-linear degradations. Here, "degradation" is broadly generalized to include any non-linear loss of information, spanning from optical distortions to semantic abstractions like classification. This approach enables zero-shot inversion of complex degradations and allows precise semantic control over generative outputs without retraining the diffusion prior.

  Non-linear activation functions, e.g., Sigmoid, ReLU, and Tanh, have achieved great success in neural networks (NNs) Due to the complex non-linear characteristic of samples, the objective of those activation functions is to project samples from their original feature space to a linear separable feature space. This phenomenon ignites our interest in exploring whether all features need to be transformed by all non-linear functions in current typical NNs.

• Nonlinear State-Space Generalizations of Graph Convolutional Neural Networks [172.18295279061607]
  Graph convolutional neural networks (GCNNs) learn compositional representations from network data by nesting linear graph convolutions into nonlinearities. In this work, we approach GCNNs from a state-space perspective revealing that the graph convolutional module is a minimalistic linear state-space model. We show that this state update may be problematic because it is nonparametric, and depending on the graph spectrum it may explode or vanish. We propose a novel family of nodal aggregation rules that aggregate node features within a layer in a nonlinear state-space parametric fashion allowing for a better trade-off.

• Improving predictions of Bayesian neural nets via local linearization [79.21517734364093]
  We argue that the Gauss-Newton approximation should be understood as a local linearization of the underlying Bayesian neural network (BNN) Because we use this linearized model for posterior inference, we should also predict using this modified model instead of the original one. We refer to this modified predictive as "GLM predictive" and show that it effectively resolves common underfitting problems of the Laplace approximation.
