This paper provides theoretical insights into why and how deep learning can generalize well, despite its large capacity, complexity, possible algorithmic instability, nonrobustness, and sharp minima, responding to an open question in the literature. We also discuss approaches to provide non-vacuous generalization guarantees for deep learning. Based on theoretical observations, we propose new open problems and discuss the limitations of our results.

    A segmentation model that pools vector-quantized features via optimal transport to learnable references reports state-of-the-art Dice scores on Synapse (82.23) and ACDC (91.44) benchmarks.

  3. Thinking Beyond Tokens: From Brain-Inspired Intelligence to Cognitive Foundations for Artificial General Intelligence and its Societal Impact

    cs.AI 2025-07 conditional novelty 2.0 of 10

    A broad survey arguing that AGI requires modular, memory-augmented, embodied architectures rather than scaled-up token prediction, with a brief proposal to decompose intelligence into five components.
