A sparse-response deep belief network based on rate distortion theory

作者:

Highlights:

• A novel deep belief network based on rate distortion theory for feature extraction is proposed.

• Sparse response regularization induced by L1-norm of codes is used to achieve a small rate.

• KL divergence is considered as a distortion function.

• Hierarchical representations mimicking computations in the cortical hierarchy are learnt.

• More discriminative representation than other algorithms in deep belief networks is yielded.
