New method uses Gaussian smoothing for quantized neural networks

Researchers have developed a method using Gaussian averaging as a smooth approximation for quantized neural networks. This technique, when applied under bounded local oscillation, provides a dimension-dependent bound on the difference between the original function and its smoothed version. The study also presents closed-form Gaussian averages for common activation functions like ReLU and the sign function, demonstrating their application on a high-dimensional binary perceptron model.
