Parameterized Complexity of $L_p$-Lipschitz Constants for Input Convex Neural Networks and $L_p$-Norm Maximization over Zonotopes

Original description

Lipschitz constants are a standard way to quantify the sensitivity of neural networks to small input perturbations, but computing them is difficult even for shallow ReLU networks. We study this problem for two-layer input-convex neural networks (ICNNs), a restricted architecture where nonnegative output weights enforce convexity. Computing the $L_p$-Lipschitz constant for these networks is equivalent to maximizing the dual norm over a zonotope. While $L_1$- and $L_\infty$-norm maximization on zonotopes admit fixed-parameter and polynomial-time algorithms, respectively, the parameterized comple...
