New Topo^2 Framework Separates Memory and Generalization in Deep Networks

Researchers have introduced Topo^2, a novel framework designed to disentangle and measure memory and generalization in deep learning models. This framework utilizes persistent homology to separate the representation space into distinct channels, allowing for the quantification of memorized noisy labels versus generalization on clean data. An intervention called the FM0 prescription demonstrates that models can achieve peak generalization while minimizing memorization, and the study quantifies the cost of memorization as a causally additive topological layer.

    Measuring Memory and Generalization as Separable Geometric Channels: The Topo^2 Framework

    Deep networks trained on noisy labels simultaneously generalize on clean data and memorize flipped labels. These are usually conflated as pressures on one capacity. We present Topo^2, a measurement framework that makes them causally separable, measurable, and law-governed. Persis…
