Analysis

This paper presents a fascinating approach to understanding neural network data flow by applying graph curvature, a concept borrowed from differential geometry. The use of Ollivier-Ricci curvature to identify critical connections within neural networks offers a fresh and potentially powerful tool for enhancing model analysis and performance. This innovative methodology could significantly impact how we analyze and improve AI models.

"We use this intuition for the case of NNs as well: we 1)~construct a graph induced by the NN structure and introduce the notion of neural curvature (NC) based on the ORC; 2)~calculate curvatures based on activation patterns for a set of input examples; 3)~aim to demonstrate that NC can indeed be used to rank edges according to their importance for the overall NN functionality."
