Quasi-Equivariant Metanetworks

ArXi:2604.23720v1 Announce Type: new Metanetworks are neural architectures designed to operate directly on pretrained weights to perform downstream tasks. However, the parameter space serves only as a proxy for the underlying function class, and the parameter-function mapping is inherently non-injective: distinct parameter configurations may yield identical input-output behaviors. As a result, metanetworks that rely solely on raw parameters risk overlooking the intrinsic symmetries of the architecture. Reasoning about functional identity is. therefore.
