Deep learning has brought about a paradigm shift in our quest for general artificial intelligence. Powered by concurrent technological advances neural nets have in recent times beaten all previous benchmarks in playing hard strategy games like chess and Go, [18], [17] and have also radically pushed forward the technology towards self-driving cars [8]. But on the other hand the methods employed to make deep learning practical remain highly mysterious and challenging to prove guarantees about. During my PhD. I have been extremely passionate about figuring out mathematically rigorous ways to understand deep-learning.
