New RBM Reformulation Unifies Linear and Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction

A new paper proposes a reformulation of Restricted Boltzmann Machines (RBMs) to unify linear and nonlinear dimensionality reduction. The reformulated RBM can handle continuous scalar and vector variables and offers flexibility in activation function choice. Numerical experiments indicate its capability in both linear and nonlinear dimensionality reduction, potentially outperforming Principal Component Analysis for nonlinear tasks. AI

    Reformulation of RBM to Unify Linear and Nonlinear Dimensionality Reduction

    arXiv:1909.08210v4 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: A restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) is a two-layer neural network with shared weights and has been extensively studied for dimensionality reduction, data representation and recommendation systems in the literature. The tr…
