Higher-order probabilistic perceptrons as Bayesian inference engines.
An explicit structural connection is established between the Bayes optimal classifier operating on K binary input variables and a corresponding two-layer perceptron having normalized output activities and couplings from input to output units of all orders up to K. With suitable modification of connection weights and biases, such a higher-order probabilistic perceptron should in principle be abl...
متن کاملVenture: a higher-order probabilistic programming platform with programmable inference
We describe Venture, an interactive virtual machine for probabilistic programming that aims to be sufficiently expressive, extensible, and efficient for general-purpose use. Like Church, probabilistic models and inference problems in Venture are specified via a Turing-complete, higher-order probabilistic language descended from Lisp. Unlike Church, Venture also provides a compositional language...
متن کاملGenetic Algorithms and Higher Order Perceptrons
Constructive induction, which is defined to be the process of constructing new and useful features from existing ones, has been extensively studied in the literature. Since the number of possible high order featuresfor any given leaming problem is exponential in the number of input attributes (where the order of a feature is defined to be the number of attributes of which it is composed), the m...
متن کاملOn Higher Order Noise Immune Perceptrons
This paper details a systematic method for significantly enhancing the noise margins of very fast threshold gates. The method is based on adding nonlinear terms determined from the Boolean form of the linearly separable (threshold) function to be implemented. It follows that linearly separable functions can be computed with high noise immunity by higher order perceptrons. Simulation results sup...
متن کاملFirst-order probabilistic inference
There have been many proposals for first-order belief networks (i.e., where we quantify over individuals) but these typically only let us reason about the individuals that we know about. There are many instances where we have to quantify over all of the individuals in a population. When we do this the population size often matters and we need to reason about all of the members of the population...
