Random Neural Networks in the Infinite Width Limit as Gaussian Processes

Abstract

This article gives a new proof that fully connected neural networks with random weights and biases converge to Gaussian processes in the regime where the input dimension, output dimension, and depth are kept fixed, while the hidden layer widths tend to infinity. Unlike prior work, convergence is shown assuming only moment conditions for the distribution of weights and for quite general non-linearities.
