Implicit Bias of SGD in Multivariate ReLU Networks: Effective Width Collapse

arXiv:2607.03613v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: We study the implicit bias of noisy stochastic gradient descent in training wide two-layer ReLU networks for multivariate regression. In a mean-field regime, the training dynamics are approximated by a Wasserstein gradient flow that converges to a unique stationary measure. We characterize the structure of this stationary measure and the predictor it represents. We show that, despite the network being infinitely overparameterized, the learned predictor admits an effectively finite representation: the input weights and biases align along finitely
