The Choice Problem: Neural Network Learning, Generalization, and Geometry

چکیده
We study the learning and generalization capacity of layered feed-forward neural networks in the context of mappings of arbitrarily long bit strings into one of three ordered outputs. Many signal-processing applications reduce to this problem. We use the back-propagation learning algorithm to train the network. We describe these mappings in terms of collections of linear partitions of the input space and the state spaces of the hidden layers of neurons. This description accounts for the properties of the mappings and suggests that learning and generalization are enhanced by training with boundary points of the input space. Several examples are included. We close with implications for layered feed-forward networks in general.

متن کاملA multi-scale convolutional neural network for automatic cloud and cloud shadow detection from Gaofen-1 images
The reconstruction of the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow is an important step in pre-processing of high-resolution satellite images. The cloud and cloud shadow automatic segmentation could be the first step in the process of reconstructing the information contaminated by cloud and cloud shadow. This stage is a remarkable challenge due to the relatively inefficient performanc...
