DESCRIPTION:Speaker: Dominik Schröder\nhosted by M. Beiglböck\, N. Berest
 ycki\, L. Erdös\, J. Maas\, F. Toninelli\nAbstract: In the first part of 
 the talk we give an overview of recent mathematical results on scaling lim
 its of neural networks with random weights. In particular we introduce the
  neural tangent kernel (NTK) and the conjugate kernel (CK) and explain con
 nections to the double descent phenomenon observed in generalisation perfo
 rmance. In the second part of the talk we report on recent work [Piccolo\,
  S. NeurIPS 2021] on the asymptotic spectrum of the CK in the linear width
  scaling regime. Our result indicates that in the case of an additive bias
  it is impossible to choose an activation function leaving the asymptotic 
 CK spectrum invariant throughout multiple layers\, in sharp contrast to th
 e bias-free case where a simple integral constraint is sufficient for this
  type of invariance.
