Complexity of ReLU Network Synthesis Explored in New Research

Researchers have investigated the computational complexity of synthesizing ReLU networks when the parameter values are provided in advance. The study explores how difficult it is to construct a ReLU network with a given set of parameters and a bound on the number of neurons. The findings indicate that problems such as matching two labeled examples exactly are NP-complete, and agreeing with a Boolean circuit on every input is Σ₂ᴾ-complete even for a small number of neurons. Approximating a ReLU network and determining expected squared loss also present significant computational challenges, with complexities reaching DP-complete and NPᴾᴾ-complete respectively. AI

IMPACT This research delves into the theoretical underpinnings of neural network construction, potentially informing future algorithm design and optimization strategies.

    The Complexity of ReLU Network Synthesis from a Parameter Multiset

    We ask how hard it is to build a ReLU network when its parameter values are given in advance. An instance supplies an appropriate encoding of a target behavior, a multiset of rational numbers, and a bound on the number of neurons (output included). The question is whether one can…
