Efficient Anti-Symmetrization of a Neural Network Layer by Taming the Sign Problem
Explicit antisymmetrization of a neural network is a potential candidate for a universal function approximator for generic antisymmetric functions, which are ubiquitous in quantum physics. However, this procedure is a priori factorially costly to implement, making it impractical for large numbers of particles. The strategy also suffers from a sign problem. Namely, due to near-exact cancellation of positive and negative contributions, the magnitude of the antisymmetrized function may be significantly smaller than before anti-symmetrization. We show that the anti-symmetric projection of a two-layer neural network can be evaluated efficiently, opening the door to using a generic antisymmetric layer as a building block in anti-symmetric neural network Ansatzes. This approximation is effective when the sign problem is controlled, and we show that this property depends crucially the choice of activation function under standard Xavier/He initialization methods. As a consequence, using a smooth activation function requires re-scaling of the neural network weights compared to standard initializations.

期刊介绍: The Journal of Machine Learning Research (JMLR) provides an international forum for the electronic and paper publication of high-quality scholarly articles in all areas of machine learning. All published papers are freely available online. JMLR has a commitment to rigorous yet rapid reviewing. JMLR seeks previously unpublished papers on machine learning that contain: new principled algorithms with sound empirical validation, and with justification of theoretical, psychological, or biological nature; experimental and/or theoretical studies yielding new insight into the design and behavior of learning in intelligent systems; accounts of applications of existing techniques that shed light on the strengths and weaknesses of the methods; formalization of new learning tasks (e.g., in the context of new applications) and of methods for assessing performance on those tasks; development of new analytical frameworks that advance theoretical studies of practical learning methods; computational models of data from natural learning systems at the behavioral or neural level; or extremely well-written surveys of existing work.
