question:
Neural networks exhibit good generalization behavior in the
 over-parameterized regime, where the number of network parameters
 exceeds the number of observations. Nonetheless,
 current generalization bounds for neural networks fail to explain this
 phenomenon. In an attempt to bridge this gap, we study the problem of
 learning a two-layer over-parameterized neural network, when the data is generated by a linearly separable function. In the case where the network has Leaky
 ReLU activations, we provide both optimization and generalization guarantees for over-parameterized networks.
 Specifically, we prove convergence rates of SGD to a global
 minimum and provide generalization guarantees for this global minimum
 that are independent of the network size. 
 Therefore, our result clearly shows that the use of SGD for optimization both finds a global minimum, and avoids overfitting despite the high capacity of the model. This is the first theoretical demonstration that SGD can avoid overfitting, when learning over-specified neural network classifiers.
answer:
We show that SGD learns two-layer over-parameterized neural networks with Leaky ReLU activations that provably generalize on linearly separable data.


question:
Despite the fact that generative models are extremely successful in practice, the theory underlying this phenomenon is only starting to catch up with practice. In this work we address the question of the universality of generative models: is it true that neural networks can approximate any data manifold arbitrarily well? We provide a positive answer to this question and show that under mild assumptions on the activation function one can always find a feedforward neural network that maps the latent space onto a set located within the specified Hausdorff distance from the desired data manifold. We also prove similar theorems for the case of multiclass generative models and cycle generative models, trained to map samples from one manifold to another and vice versa.
answer:
We shot that a wide class of manifolds can be generated by ReLU and sigmoid networks with arbitrary precision.


question:
We introduce causal implicit generative models (CiGMs): models that allow sampling from not only the true observational but also the true interventional distributions. We show that adversarial training can be used to learn a CiGM, if the generator architecture is structured based on a given causal graph. We consider the application of conditional and interventional sampling of face images with binary feature labels, such as mustache, young. We preserve the dependency structure between the labels with a given causal graph. We devise a two-stage procedure for learning a CiGM over the labels and the image. First we train a CiGM over the binary labels using a  Wasserstein GAN where the generator neural network is consistent with the causal graph between the labels. Later, we combine this with a conditional GAN to generate images conditioned on the binary labels. We propose two new conditional GAN architectures: CausalGAN and CausalBEGAN. We show that the optimal generator of the CausalGAN, given the labels, samples from the image distributions conditioned on these labels. The conditional GAN combined with a trained CiGM for the labels is then a CiGM over the labels and the generated image. We show that the proposed architectures can be used to sample from observational and interventional image distributions, even for interventions which do not naturally occur in the dataset.
answer:

We introduce causal implicit generative models, which can sample from conditional and interventional distributions and also propose two new conditional GANs which we use for training them.
