Lilian Weng's blog post delves into the mathematical underpinnings of the Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK), a concept used to explain the training dynamics of neural networks. The post focuses on NTK's definition and proofs, particularly how infinitely wide neural networks converge to a global minimum during gradient descent. It reviews foundational mathematical concepts like vector-to-vector derivatives, ordinary differential equations, the Central Limit Theorem, and Taylor expansions, which are essential for understanding NTK.
