What is the impact of the initialization of weights in the performance of a neural network in machine learning?

Progress about how to best initialize the weights, is what has made neural networks to be popular again. Initially (around the 80s I think), NNs were initialized from Normal distributions like $\...

Applicability of Holland's Schema Theorem to Genetic Algorithms with Non-Binary Individual Representations

It's been a while since I've been active in the research community, and it's possible that this is a controversial opinion, but I suspect it's still true that the Schema Theorem is not really used ...

What is the impact of the initialization of weights in the performance of a neural network in machine learning?

Weight initialization can and often does matter, hence why pre-training language models are useful for downstream tasks. A randomly initialized model is not guaranteed to converge, especially if the ...
