DESCRIPTION:Jacob Zavatone-Veth (Harvard) \nUnderstanding how representat
 ion learning affects generalization is among the foremost goals of modern 
 deep learning theory. In this talk\, I will discuss the significant recent
  progress that has been made towards understanding perhaps the simplest to
 y model for deep representation learning: deep linear Bayesian neural netw
 orks. For these models\, we can obtain a precise asymptotic characterizati
 on of generalization and representation learning\, and in some cases even 
 obtain closed-form solutions at finite size. I will conclude by commenting
  on remaining gaps in our understanding\, and on transferrability of insig
 hts to nonlinear models.
