Abstract (arXiv)

We study the representation capacity of deep hyperbolic neural networks (HNNs) with a ReLU activation function. We establish the first proof that HNNs can varepsilon-isometrically embed any finite weighted tree into a hyperbolic space of dimension d at least equal to 2 with prescribed sectional curvature kappa<0, for any varepsilon> 1 (where varepsilon=1 being optimal). We establish rigorous upper bounds for the network complexity on an HNN implementing the embedding. We find that the network complexity of HNN implementing the graph representation is independent of the representation fidelity/distortion. We contrast this result against our lower bounds on distortion which any ReLU multi-layer perceptron (MLP) must exert when embedding a tree with L>2d leaves into a d-dimensional Euclidean space, which we show at least Omega(L1/d); independently of the depth, width, and (possibly discontinuous) activation function defining the MLP.
