Statistical Criticality arises in Most Informative Representations

• Why does deep and cheap learning work so well?

We explore how properties frequently encountered in physics such as symmetry, locality, compositionality, and
polynomial log-probability translate into exceptionally simple neural networks

Random Matrix Theory Proves that Deep Learning Representations of GAN-data Behave as Gaussian Mixtures
