Random Graph-Based Neuromorphic Learning with a Layer-Weaken Structure
This work addresses the problem of structure optimization in neural networks for researchers and practitioners, offering a novel approach that is incremental in its application of random graph theory.
The paper tackles the challenge of optimizing neural network structures by using random graphs as architecture generators, resulting in a model (RGNN) that reduces manual design and computational cost while achieving significant performance improvements on three benchmark tasks.
Unified understanding of neuro networks (NNs) gets the users into great trouble because they have been puzzled by what kind of rules should be obeyed to optimize the internal structure of NNs. Considering the potential capability of random graphs to alter how computation is performed, we demonstrate that they can serve as architecture generators to optimize the internal structure of NNs. To transform the random graph theory into an NN model with practical meaning and based on clarifying the input-output relationship of each neuron, we complete data feature mapping by calculating Fourier Random Features (FRFs). Under the usage of this low-operation cost approach, neurons are assigned to several groups of which connection relationships can be regarded as uniform representations of random graphs they belong to, and random arrangement fuses those neurons to establish the pattern matrix, markedly reducing manual participation and computational cost without the fixed and deep architecture. Leveraging this single neuromorphic learning model termed random graph-based neuro network (RGNN) we develop a joint classification mechanism involving information interaction between multiple RGNNs and realize significant performance improvements in supervised learning for three benchmark tasks, whereby they effectively avoid the adverse impact of the interpretability of NNs on the structure design and engineering practice.
