SUMMARY:Seminar in probability theory: David Belius (Universität Basel)
DESCRIPTION:This is the first talk in a five part series of talks on deep l
 earning from a theoretical point of view\, held jointly between the probab
 ility theory and machine learning groups of the Department of Mathematics 
 and Computer Science. The four invited speakers that follow after this tal
 k are young researchers who are contributing in different ways to what wil
 l hopefully eventually be a comprehensive theory of deep neural networks.I
 n this first talk I will introduce the main theoretical questions about de
 ep neural networks:1. Representation - what can deep neural networks repr
 esent?2. Optimization - why and under what circumstances can we successfu
 lly train neural networks?3. Generalization - why do deep neural networks
  often generalize well\, despite huge capacity?As a preface I will review 
 the basic models and algorithms (Neural Networks\, (stochastic) gradient d
 escent\, ...) and some important concepts from machine learning (capacity\
 , overfitting/underfitting\, generalization\, ...).
