- Code for the NeurIPS 2024 paper Only Strict Saddles in the Energy Landscape of Predictive Coding Networks?.
- See this blog post for the key ideas of the paper.
- Also check out this library for training predictive coding networks, which was used for some of the experiments in this paper.
All the results and plots from the paper can be reproduced from the included notebooks. All notebooks except for the convergence experiments can be run in < 15min on a CPU. For the heavier convergence experiments, we recommend using a GPU.
