Researchers have analyzed the training dynamics of feed-forward neural networks using a Neural Tangent Kernel (NTK) approach applied to Parton Distribution Functions (PDFs) derived from deep inelastic scattering (DIS) data. This method provides an analytical view of how data and methodology influence training, generalizing previous single-flavor analyses to multi-flavor scenarios. The study reveals that gradient-based optimization and parameterization act as regularizers for the ill-posed inverse problem of determining PDFs, with regularization occurring through the incremental inclusion of NTK modes. Notably, only a few leading NTK modes are required to accurately reconstruct the target PDFs, while noise is captured by sub-leading modes learned later in the training process. AI
