It is not very well understood at the moment why large neural networks with more parameters than training data generalise well from training data to test data. This talk explores the main hurdles and potential future avenues to improve our understanding of these models. In particular, we are going to look at a few approaches from Statistical Learning Theory to prove generalisation properties of neural networks. First, we examine a more traditional approach to that bounds the capacity of learning models (VC dimension) followed by a review of the more recent approaches that utilise information theory to prove generalisation.
