(1/N) Just up on arXiv: "On the functions computed on trees". arxiv.org/abs/1904.02309
A little tour around the paper...
(2/N) Neural networks are versatile computational tools. Their math is simple: they repeatedly compose previously constructed functions with simple functions, e.g. linear and sigmoid. Which functions could be generated this way?
