Deep Belief Networks spontaneously organize representations of unlabeled data

Researchers have demonstrated that Deep Belief Networks (DBNs), when trained on unlabeled data, can spontaneously organize their internal representations to reflect the underlying class structures of that data. By analyzing DBNs trained on datasets like MNIST, Fashion-MNIST, and KMNIST using measures such as the Generalized Discrimination Value (GDV) and effective dimensionality, the study found that class-specific clustering generally increases with network depth. This emergent order suggests that unsupervised generative learning can effectively uncover and amplify class-related information without explicit labels. AI

IMPACT Suggests unsupervised learning can discover and amplify class structures, potentially improving feature extraction in AI models.

    Convergent Evolution in Neural Representation Space: Emergent Order in Deep Belief Networks

    Deep Belief Networks (DBNs) learn hierarchical generative models without class supervision. Here, we ask whether this purely unsupervised process nevertheless organizes internal representations according to the unknown data classes. We analyze successive layers of DBNs trained on…
