Overview of this book

Deep Learning is the next big thing. It is a part of machine learning. It's favorable results in applications with huge and complex data is remarkable. Simultaneously, R programming language is very popular amongst the data miners and statisticians. This book will help you to get through the problems that you face during the execution of different tasks and Understand hacks in deep learning, neural networks, and advanced machine learning techniques. It will also take you through complex deep learning algorithms and various deep learning packages and libraries in R. It will be starting with different packages in Deep Learning to neural networks and structures. You will also encounter the applications in text mining and processing along with a comparison between CPU and GPU performance. By the end of the book, you will have a logical understanding of Deep learning and different deep learning packages to have the most appropriate solutions for your problems.

Preface

Comparing principal component analysis with the Restricted Boltzmann machine


In this section, you will learn about two widely recommended dimensionality reduction techniques--Principal component analysis (PCA) and the Restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM). Consider a vector v in n-dimensional space. The dimensionality reduction technique essentially transforms the vector v into a relatively smaller (or sometimes equal) vector v' with m-dimensions (m<n). The transformation can be either linear or nonlinear.

PCA performs a linear transformation on features such that orthogonally adjusted components are generated that are later ordered based on their relative importance of variance capture. These m components can be considered as new input features, and can be defined as follows:

Vector v' =

Here, w and c correspond to weights (loading) and transformed components, respectively.

Unlike PCA, RBMs (or DBNs/autoencoders) perform non-linear transformations using connections between visible and hidden...
