This paper presents a margin-based multiclass generalization bound for neural networks which scales with their margin-normalized "spectral complexity": their Lipschitz constant, meaning the product of the spectral norms of the weight matrices, times a certain correction factor. This bound is empirically investigated for a standard AlexNet network on the mnist and cifar10 datasets, with both original and random labels, where it tightly correlates with the observed excess risks.
