About this paper

Alberto Bordino, Stefano Favaro, Sandra Fortini

The authors derive limits for deep networks with heavy-tailed Stable weights. They track how activation growth changes transformed weight tails, then use a generalized central limit theorem to determine normalization and limiting law. Under sequential width growth, ReLU requires a logarithmic correction, while a shallow cubic activation changes the stability index to α/3. Joint growth and general multiple-input limits remain unestablished.
