Preface

Deep autoencoders


An autoencoder is used for feature selection and extraction. It consists of two symmetrical DBNs. The first half of the network is composed of several layers, which performs encoding. The second part of the network performs decoding. Each layer of the autoencoder is an RBM. This is illustrated in the following figure:

The purpose of the encoding sequence is to compress the original input into a smaller vector space. The middle layer of the previous figure is this compressed layer. These intermediate vectors can be thought of as possible features of the dataset. The encoding is also referred to as the pre-training half. It is the output of the intermediate RBM layer and does not perform classification.

The encoder's first layer will use more inputs than used by the dataset. This has the effect of expanding the features of the dataset. A sigmoid-belief unit is a form of non-linear transformation used with each layer. This unit is not able to accurately represent information...
