Replace nominal hidden-unit count by the number of distinct realized ReLU kink hyperplanes, then regularize or prune this effective count. Neurons whose normalized affine boundaries coincide can be exactly merged by summing their canonical coefficients, reducing memory without changing the represented function and aligning the model's complexity measure with the theorem.
Construct a sparse token-interaction graph from attention affinities and recursively split it by removing the closed neighborhoods of a small set of separator tokens. Separator tokens retain global communication, while the resulting anti-adjacent components perform local attention independently, reducing quadratic attention and KV-cache costs. The induced Erdos-Pósa theorem supplies a structural diagnostic: graphs with few anti-adjacent long-cycle or theta packings should admit small…
Replace repeated full-curvature factorizations when evaluating many Bayesian neural-network hyperparameter settings with one shared low-rank approximation of the data-induced precision update. Reuse the same curvature subspace while changing prior precision, observation-noise precision, or layerwise regularization, evaluating each candidate through a small rank-r matrix and Woodbury solves.
Replace a discrete or one-hot recurrent state table with a low-dimensional vector memory whose event embeddings are orthogonal whenever the corresponding events are mutually exclusive in an input exclusivity graph. The module uses continuous state vectors and can therefore target dimension \(d=\xi(G)\), whereas a discrete state encoding is lower-bounded by \(N\geq\chi(G)\). This should be tested on graph-defined formal-language recognition tasks, where the graph is known and the claimed…
Represent an intermediate feature as a low-rank PSD matrix and compress it using nonnegative measurements \(\langle A_i,X\rangle\), while penalizing the empirical ratio between maximum and minimum measurement distortion over low-rank feature pairs. This directly discourages collapsed directions and excessively amplified directions in a covariance or Gram-feature bottleneck.
