Tutorial Objectives#
Estimated timing of tutorial: 40 minutes
Welcome to Tutorial 1 on Generalization and Representational Geometry. Building on the Intro Lecture, this tutorial aims to help you get your feet wet and characterize representations in terms of their geometry, as captured by the distances among inputs at different stages of processing. The key point of this tutorial is that the way machine learning models generalize depends on how they represent their inputs and, in particular, on how similar a new input is to other inputs in the internal representations. We focus on linear models, where the close relationship between similarity and generalization can be most easily understood from an intuitive and mathematical perspective.
By the end of this tutorial, you will:
Understand the concept of representational geometry and the representational dissimilarity matrix.
Understand the connection between generalization and representational similarity in the linear case.
Understand how the analytic solution for linear regression can be seen as a weighted sum of training values, weighted by the test inputs’ similarity to the training inputs.
Exercises include:
Question on comparing RDMs.
Question on the relationship between RDMs and model performances.
Interactive exercise on how similarity structure affects predictions.
This tutorial includes an interactive widget that plays only locally or in Colab, but not in Kaggle.
Setup#
This tutorial uses Graphviz
for additional visualizations. For proper execution of the functions, you should install it locally. Please visit this link to get the instructions depending on your local OS configurations (if you are running this notebook on Google Colab, just skip it).

Section 1: MNIST DNN Comparisons#
In this section, we are going to take a look at the MNIST Dataset and its adversarial version.
In this activity, you will use linear regression on representations of two neural networks trained on MNIST, one with adversarial training and one without. The objective is to observe:
How predictions for clean images of numbers are similar between networks for a deep layer
The close alignment of the predictions with the category structure
How the dissimilarity matrix reflects a category structure
How dissimilarity matrices from the two networks compare
The significant differences in predictions and dissimilarity matrices when applying adversarial examples
Understanding the MNIST DNNs#
We start by defining two models on the MNIST dataset: a standard model and an adversarially robust model. The training process for the adversarially robust model includes a step where adversarial examples are generated and used to train the robust model.
You are already provided with the trained models to save time. Still, you are free to explore the training code being included in the tutorial.
Defining the MNIST Model#
First, we define a neural network model that will be trained on the MNIST dataset. The MNIST dataset consists of 28x28 pixel images of handwritten digits (0 through 9). Our model, based on the LeNet architecture, includes two convolutional layers followed by dropout layers to reduce overfitting and, finally, fully connected layers to perform classification.
MNIST Model#

class Net(nn.Module):
def __init__(self):
super(Net, self).__init__()
self.conv1 = nn.Conv2d(1, 32, 3, 1)
self.conv2 = nn.Conv2d(32, 64, 3, 1)
self.dropout1 = nn.Dropout(0.25)
self.dropout2 = nn.Dropout(0.5)
self.fc1 = nn.Linear(9216, 128)
self.fc2 = nn.Linear(128, 10)
def forward(self, x):
x = self.conv1(x)
x = F.relu(x)
x = self.conv2(x)
x = F.relu(x)
x = F.max_pool2d(x, 2)
x = self.dropout1(x)
x = torch.flatten(x, 1)
x = self.fc1(x)
x = F.relu(x)
x = self.dropout2(x)
x = self.fc2(x)
output = F.log_softmax(x, dim=1)
return output
Training the Standard Model#
Once the model is defined, we would normally proceed to train it on the MNIST dataset. Training involves feeding batches of images and their corresponding labels to the model and adjusting the model’s weights based on the loss computed from its predictions and the actual labels through backpropagation and gradient descent. This process is iterated over multiple epochs to improve the model’s accuracy.
The training code is copied here for reference in a commented block. We ran this code offline and saved a checkpoint. In the interest of time, we’ll skip ahead to loading this checkpoint into the model.

Adversarial Attack & Model Robustness#
Generating Adversarial Examples
Adversarial examples are inputs to machine learning models that an attacker has intentionally designed to cause the model to make a mistake. They are often indistinguishable from real data by humans but result in incorrect predictions by the model. Generating these examples and using them in training can improve a model’s robustness against such attacks.

Here, we generate adversarial images using the Fast Gradient Sign Method (FGSM). This is a popular and straightforward adversarial attack technique designed to test the robustness of neural networks. Developed by Ian Goodfellow and his colleagues in 2014, FGSM backprops through the neural network to create perturbed inputs that maximize the loss:
where:
\(\text{perturbed image}\) is the adversarial image
\(\text{image}\) is the original input image
\(\epsilon\) is the magnitude of the perturbation
\(\nabla_{\text{image}} J(\text{image}, \text{true label})\) is the gradient of the loss with respect to the input image
\(\text{sign}(\cdot)\) returns the sign of the argument

Training the Adversarially Robust Model#
With adversarial examples at hand, we now train a model designed to be robust against such examples. The idea is to include adversarial examples in the training process, enabling the model to learn from and defend against them.
Again, we’ve included the training code in a commented section, and you are presented with an already adversarially trained network.

Evaluating Model Robustness#
Now that we have a trained model, we evaluate its resistance to adversarial attacks. We do this by testing the models on both standard and adversarial images and comparing their accuracies.
While these adversarially generated images are visually indistinguishable from the original ones, they cause dramatic decreases in the standard model, while the adversarially trained model is robust to this kind of attack.
Test model#

print("For adversrially trained model (eps=0.2):")
test_adversarial(model_robust, adv_imgs_advmodel, targets)
For standard model trained without adversarial examples (eps=0.2):
adversarial test accuracy = 30 / 50 = 0.6
For adversrially trained model (eps=0.2):
adversarial test accuracy = 49 / 50 = 0.98
You should observe that the adversarially trained model has much higher accuracy on the adversarial images.
Extracting Model Features and Analyzing Representations#
With the models trained and adversarial images generated, we proceed to extract features from different layers of our networks using torchlens, a package for extracting neural network activations and visualizing their computational graph. This will allow us to peer into the data representations at different layers of the models in normal and adversarial conditions.

Section 2: Creating and Comparing Representation Dissimilarity Matrices#
Estimated timing to here from start of tutorial: 15 minutes
Using the Representational Similarity Analysis (RSA) toolbox, you will create representational dissimilarity matrices (RDMs) for each model and condition (standard and adversarial). These matrices provide a visual representation of how inputs are represented within the network, offering insights into the models’ generalization capabilities and the effects of adversarial training.
What is an RDM?#
Before diving into the practical applications, let’s clarify what an RDM is. An RDM is a tool used to measure and visualize the dissimilarities in the responses of a neural system to different inputs. It is represented as a matrix \(M\) where each element \(M_{ij}\) measures how dissimilar the response patterns in some layer of a neural network are to the \(i\)-th and \(j\)-th input. Let’s consider a particular estimator of representational dissimilarity:
Here \(r(x_i, x_j)\) is the Pearson correlation coefficient between the representations of the \(i\)-th and \(j\)-th inputs. \(1 - r(x_i, x_j)\) is also known as the correlation distance, which quantifies the dissimilarity between two inputs.
RDMs help us understand how well a model differentiates between various types of inputs, which is a key aspect of generalization. They are particularly useful in deep learning as they help illustrate the level at which different layers of a network or different networks recognize and differentiate between input categories. A well-performing model will show clear patterns of dissimilarity corresponding to different input categories, especially in deeper layers.
Visualizing RDMs#
We first visualize the category structure by computing the RDM of the labels. To see clear blocks in RDMs—where blocks indicate that inputs of the same class are represented similarly—we need to ensure that input images are organized and grouped by their class labels before calculating the RDM. Here, we have 10 classes (numbers 0-9), each class with 5 samples, which sums up to 50 input images. Recall that each element of the RDM \(M_{ij}\) refers to the dissimilarity between the representations of the \(i\)-th and \(j\)-th inputs. Make sure you understand the figure of RDM of the labels below.

For the standard clean images, how do the RDMs change across the model layers, how do they compare to the category structure, and why?
RDMs of the standard model and the adversarially trained model are very similar for clean images.

Section 3: Interactive Exploration with Widgets#
Estimated timing to here from start of tutorial: 30 minutes
In Sections 1 & 2, we saw that networks generalize better when their test stimuli are “similar” to their training stimuli: the network trained only on normal MNIST images generalized poorly to adversarially generated images since they were not part of its training diet, whereas the network trained with adversarial images generalized more effectively to new adversarial images. It turns out that we can sometimes be mathematically precise about how the similarity of training and test examples affects generalization performance. In this interactive example, you will explore the connection between similarity and generalization in the case of linear regression.
The manner in which a readout function generalizes to new inputs depends closely on the similarity of the new inputs to training stimuli–in other words, the more similar a test stimulus is to a training stimulus, the more similar the output of the readout will be. But what do we mean by “similar”? The relevant way to measure “similarity” in each case will depend on the readout function in question. In the case of linear regression, the relevant similarity metric is the kernel (dot product) similarity of the inputs. To see this, you can inspect the matrix form of the least squares solution for regression below:
Note that the predicted outputs for the test stimuli are a weighted combination of the outputs for training stimuli, where the weights depend on the inner products of the training and test stimuli. Thus, the more similar a training stimulus is to a given test stimulus, the more strongly the output for that training stimulus will contribute to the output for that test stimulus. To give another example, in the case of a radial basis function readout, the relevant notion of similarity would be the Euclidean distance between the inputs.
Interactive exercise#
In this interactive exercise, you will explore how the similarity between training and test stimuli predicts how the network generalizes. The task is to use linear regression on activations from our MNIST network from above in order to predict how “left-leaning” or “right-leaning” a particular digit image is. You play the role of the human rater providing the outputs for the training data and will rate the leaning direction of each individual training image from 1-10 using the provided sliders (on the left), where a 1 is leaning strongly left, a 10 is leaning strongly right, and a 5 is perfectly upright, with no leaning. Based on these provided ratings, ridge regression is trained under the hood to predict those ratings using the activations from the selected layer of the neural network, and the resulting regression model is then applied to new images, yielding predicted leaning ratings for these images (red numbers at the bottom).
The color-coded matrix shows the dot product similarity between activations for the training images (rows) and test images (columns)–yellow means that the two images are highly similar based on the dot product of the activations for those images, and dark blue means the two images are highly dissimilar. The goal of this exercise is to explore how the predicted leaning direction of the test stimuli is determined by your leaning ratings of the training stimuli, and the similarity of the training and test stimuli.
Using the matrix, find training and test images that are highly similar and play around with the rating of the training image. How much does the predicted learning rating for the test image change? Try this for a few different pairs.
Now find a highly dissimilar pair and play with the rating. How much does the predicted leaning of the test image change? Try this for a few different pairs.
Using the dropdown menu, you can choose a different layer of the neural network to predict the leaning direction of the images, reflecting different stages of processing in the network. Try a few different layers.

In this tutorial, we explored a foundational issue in artificial intelligence: how can we understand how a system generalizes to new inputs that it wasn’t trained on? We did this through the lens of representational similarity analysis (RSA), the characterization of a system based on the pattern of dissimilarities among a set of stimuli. This tutorial has two parts:
In part 1, you used RSA to understand how networks trained in different ways handle adversarial stimuli designed to fool the network.
In part 2, you used an interactive widget to understand how a network’s response to a new stimulus depends on its similarity to training stimuli.
