Predicting Generalization in Deep Learning via Local Measures of Distortion
We study generalization in deep learning by appealing to complexity measures originally developed in approximation and information theory. While these concepts are challenged by the high-dimensional and data-defined nature of deep learning, we show that simple vector quantization approaches such as PCA, GMMs, and SVMs capture their spirit when applied layer-wise to deep extracted features giving rise to relatively inexpensive complexity measures that correlate well with generalization performance. We discuss our results in 2020 NeurIPS PGDL challenge.
