Abstract (in Japanese) (See Japanese page) 
(in English) The property known as mode connectivity, where the weights of two neural networks independently trained using the same dataset and model can be connected with curves in parameter space while keeping the loss small, has been experimentally confirmed. Previous studies have shown linear mode connectivity, which connects weights linearly, by eliminating the permutation symmetry of hidden layers. These studies, however, was premised on identical model structures and parameter sizes. This study extends existing methods and demonstrates that linear mode connectivity can be achieved even when the number of units in the hidden layers of the two models differs. This is shown in experiments using multilayer perceptrons trained on the MNIST dataset and ResNet20 trained on the CIFAR100 dataset.
