Understanding the Efficacy of Over-Parameterization in Neural Networks

Understanding the Efficacy of Over-Parameterization in Neural Networks Understanding the Efficacy of Over-Parameterization in Neural Networks: Mechanisms, Theories, and Practical Implications Introduction Deep neural networks (DNNs) have become the cornerstone of modern artificial intelligence, driving advancements in computer vision, natural language processing, and myriad other domains. A key, albeit counter-intuitive, property of contemporary DNNs is their immense over-parameterization: these models often contain orders of magnitude more parameters than the number of training examples, yet they generalize remarkably well to unseen data. This phenomenon stands in stark contrast to classical statistical learning theory, which posits that models with excessive complexity relative to the available data are prone to overfitting and poor generalization. Intriguingly, empirical evidence shows that increasing the number of parameters in DNNs can lead ...

About Me

Hello! I'm Shrishti Rastogi —

an enthusiastic educator, lifelong learner, and passionate storyteller of mathematics and science.

🌟 My Journey

I grew up in Lucknow, where my love for learning and exploration first blossomed.
After completing my Master of Science in Mathematics at Maharishi University, I embarked on a mission:
to make education exciting, accessible, and deeply meaningful.

From teaching in classrooms to working in media, my journey has been all about connecting with people and sparking curiosity in fresh, creative ways.

πŸ”₯ What Drives Me

I believe that knowledge becomes most powerful when shared.
Through my blog, I aim to simplify complex ideas using interactive tools like SageMathCell, vibrant storytelling, and real-world connections.

Whether you're a curious beginner or a passionate learner, you're warmly welcome here!

πŸ’‘ What Sets Me Apart

  • Creative Educator:
    Years of experience across ICSE and CBSE boards have taught me to blend compassion, innovation, and organization—whether in a classroom or an online post.

  • Dynamic Communicator:
    My time as an anchor and editor at Ab Tak T.V Live News Channel Pvt. Ltd. helped sharpen my skills in presenting ideas clearly, compellingly, and with heart.

  • Versatile Contributor:
    From presenting at international conferences to authoring impactful book chapters, I thrive on contributing to diverse learning communities.

🎯 My Vision

Education, to me, isn't just about teaching facts—
it's about building connections, nurturing creativity, and making knowledge come alive.

Through my blog and beyond, I strive to make concepts relatable, inspiring, and joyfully understandable for all.

🌈 Outside the Desk

My curiosity extends well beyond academics!
I love:

  • Engaging in debates πŸ—£️

  • Designing mathematical models πŸ“

  • Exploring scientific innovations πŸ”¬

  • Preparing for the CSIR NET Exam, keeping my research spirit sharp and energized.

✨ Let's Connect!

If you’re passionate about learning together, exploring new ideas, or brainstorming exciting concepts, I’d love to hear from you!

After all, the more we share knowledge,
the more magic we create. πŸš€πŸŒŸ

Spirals in Nature: The Beautiful Geometry of Life

Image
Spirals—nature’s perfect blend of beauty and efficiency—are everywhere around us, from the tiniest microorganisms to the vast reaches of space. But why are spirals so prevalent? Mathematics holds the key to unraveling their secrets. Let’s explore the fascinating role of spirals in nature, their mathematical roots, and the efficiency they bring to the natural world. The Fibonacci Spiral: Nature’s Design Genius The Fibonacci spiral is perhaps the most iconic spiral in nature, deeply intertwined with the Golden Ratio. The Golden Ratio (approximately 1.618) is a special number that appears in many natural patterns. But how does this spiral work? How it works : The Fibonacci sequence is a series of numbers where each number is the sum of the two preceding ones (0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, and so on). If you draw squares whose side lengths correspond to Fibonacci numbers and connect quarter circles inside each square, you create the Fibonacci spiral. Where ...
