DSB #114

Hi,

today is Sunday which is unusual for DSB, but at least you have something pleasurable to do today or on Monday. I really recommend the first two articles about meta-overfitting or branch specialization from Analytical. 

As always, enjoy your reading. 

Analytical

http://www.offconvex.org/2021/04/07/ripvanwinkle/ – Meta-overfitting error (MOE) and its upper bounds for popular deep net architectures. The estimate is called Rip van Winkle’s Razor.

https://distill.pub/2020/circuits/branch-specialization/ – The branch specialization – when in neural networks across different architectures and tasks branches specilize on certain problems. The features are organizing between branches.
