New Gauge Controls Feature Specialization in ReLU Networks

Researchers have identified a novel mechanism within ReLU networks that controls feature specialization. By manipulating a positive-homogeneous scaling gauge, distinct feature trajectories and specialization times can be achieved, even when the initial function remains constant. This gauge assignment deterministically selects a specific neuron for feature ownership while rendering others redundant, a phenomenon attributed to differing mobilities in feature coefficient and direction changes.

    Hidden Gauge Controls Feature Specialization in ReLU Networks

    arXiv:2608.06766v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Training changes a network's predictions while allocating task-relevant structure across its internal units. In an overparameterized ReLU network, several neurons can begin with exactly the same functional role, yet one may acquir…
