The Perce ptron model was proposed as early as the 1950's as a toy model of a one-la yer neural network. The basic model consists of a set of solutions (either the Hamming cube or the sphere of dimension n) and a set of constraints g iven by independent n-dimensional Gaussian vectors. The constraints are th at the inner product of a solution vector with each constraint vector scal ed by sqrt{n} must lie in some interval on the real line. Probabilistic qu estions about the model include the satisfiability threshold (or the 'stor age capacity') and questions about the typical structure of the solution s pace. Algorithmic questions include the tractability of finding a solution (the learning problem in the neural network interpretation). I will descr ibe the model\, the main problems\, and recent progress.\n\nZoom: https:// mcgill.zoom.us/j/82167352773?pwd=VHZPZWQ0d1g1S3M0cnVvWW9jbWxEdz09\n DTSTART:20221208T163000Z DTEND:20221208T173000Z LOCATION:Room 1214\, Burnside Hall\, CA\, QC\, Montreal\, H3A 0B9\, 805 rue Sherbrooke Ouest SUMMARY:Will Perkins (Georgia Tech) URL:/mathstat/channels/event/will-perkins-georgia-tech -344077 END:VEVENT END:VCALENDAR
