Abstract. In the artificial neural networks (ANNs), feature selection is a wellresearched problem, which can improve the network performance and speed up the training of the networ...
Optimally designing the location of training input points (active learning) and choosing the best model (model selection) are two important components of supervised learning and h...
—Biasing properly the hypothesis space of a learner has been shown to improve generalization performance. Methods for achieving this goal have been proposed, that range from desi...
Modular model is a particular type of committee machine and is comprised of a set of specialized (local) models each of which is responsible for a particular region of the input s...
Recently, many applications for Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) have been developed for a large variety of learning problems. However, RBMs are usually used as feature extrac...
