Course Information
The lecture will discuss the Statistical Mechanics approach to understanding the general principles which underly the success of deep neural networks, including the analysis of Gibbs and online learning for teacher-student setups. The discussion will also include Hopfield networks, a foundational concept recently honored by the Nobel Prize in Physics awarded to John Hopfield and Geoffrey Hinton.| Tuesday 13:15-14:45, R114, ITP, Brüderstraße 16 (Lecture) |
