LSTM networks show near-critical dynamics at optimal training

Researchers have explored the concept of criticality in artificial neural networks, specifically within Long Short-Term Memory (LSTM) models. They observed that smaller LSTMs, when optimally trained, exhibit scale-free avalanche statistics and dynamics near a critical point. This near-critical behavior in LSTMs appears to be an emergent property dependent on the network's capacity, with larger models remaining subcritical. AI

    Towards Critical Branching Mechanism in Recurrent Neural Networks

    arXiv:2606.10384v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Criticality has been proposed as a key organizing principle in biological neural systems, yet its origin and relevance in artificial neural networks remain unclear. We analyze hidden-state dynamics in trained long short-term memor…
