From Approximation to Emergence: A Theory of Deep Learning

תקציר מקורי באנגליתarXiv:2607.01311v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Deep learning has outgrown any single mathematical explanation. From Approximation to Emergence develops a unified, proof-oriented account of modern deep learning theory, tracing a path from the classical foundations of approximation, optimization, and generalization to the contemporary mechanisms of overparameterization, robustness, generative modeling, transformers, in-context learning, scaling laws, interpretability, alignment, and emergence. Rather than presenting isolated results, the book organizes a broad literature into a coherent research narrative: each theory is examined through the object it controls, the assumptions that make it valid, and the phenomena it leaves unexplained. Written for researchers, graduate students, and ma
