Information-bottleneck under mean field initialization

This work explores the sensitivity of mutual information (MI) flow in hidden layers of very deep neural networks (DNNs) as a function of the initialization variance. Specifically, we demonstrate that information-bottleneck (IB) interpretations of DNNs are significantly affected by their choice of no...
