Deep Neural Networks as the Semi-classical Limit of Topological Quantum Neural Networks: The problem of generalisation
share
Deep Neural Networks miss a principled model of their operation. A novel framework for supervised learning based on Topological Quantum Field Theory that looks particularly well suited for implementation on quantum processors has been recently explored. We propose the use of this framework for understanding the problem of generalization in Deep Neural Networks. More specifically, in this approach Deep Neural Networks are viewed as the semi-classical limit of Topological Quantum Neural Networks. A framework of this kind explains easily the overfitting behavior of Deep Neural Networks during the training step and the corresponding generalization capabilities.
