Categorical Deep Learning framework unifies AI architectures

A new theoretical framework called Categorical Deep Learning (CDL) has been proposed to unify various deep learning architectures. This framework, detailed in a paper by Gavranović et al., uses category theory to provide a common language for describing models like transformers, RNNs, and CNNs. CDL aims to bridge the gap between specifying model constraints and their implementation, particularly through functional programming concepts. The theory is presented as a high-level overview of different sub-domains within deep learning, including architecture, optimization, and functional theories, with CDL focusing on the architectural aspect.
