Deep learning theory explores polynomial compositions for neural network identifiability

A new research paper explores the linear independence of polynomial compositions, a concept motivated by theoretical problems in deep learning. The paper conjectures that composing a fixed number of distinct non-constant polynomials with a generic polynomial of a large degree results in linearly independent polynomials, generalizing a known theorem. The authors establish several cases of this conjecture, which has implications for understanding the identifiability and parameter symmetries of deep neural networks with generic polynomial activation functions.
