Axiomatizing Neural Networks via Pursuit of Subspaces
The paper introduces the Pursuit of Subspaces (PoS) hypothesis, an axiomatic framework for understanding neural networks. This framework aims to bridge the gap between the empirical success of deep learning and its theoretical foundations. By formulating neural network behavior through geometric postulates, the authors provide insights into representation, computation, and generalization in neural architectures.
- ▪The PoS hypothesis offers a unified perspective on neural network behavior.
- ▪It formulates neural network behavior through a set of geometric postulates.
- ▪The framework addresses fundamental questions in deep learning, including representation structure and generalization behavior.

This gap between empirical performance and theoretical understanding poses a challenge analogous to the pre-axiomatic stage of classical geometry.
