Restricted Boltzmann machines modeling human choice

چکیده
We extend the multinomial logit model to represent some of the empirical phenomena that are frequently observed in the choices made by humans. These phenomena include the similarity effect, the attraction effect, and the compromise effect. We formally quantify the strength of these phenomena that can be represented by our choice model, which illuminates the flexibility of our choice model. We then show that our choice model can be represented as a restricted Boltzmann machine and that its parameters can be learned effectively from data. Our numerical experiments with real data of human choices suggest that we can train our choice model in such a way that it represents the typical phenomena of choice.

In this document, we provide additional details for variants of Conditional Restricted Boltzmann Machines (CRBMs). Specifically we focus on each of the four models compared in the Quantitative Evaluation (Sec. 4.4). We collect the formulae required for contrastive divergence learning of parameters, synthesis from a trained model by alternating Gibbs samping, and forward prediction from a traine...
متن کاملSparse Group Restricted Boltzmann Machines
Since learning in Boltzmann machines is typically quite slow, there is a need to restrict connections within hidden layers. However, the resulting states of hidden units exhibit statistical dependencies. Based on this observation, we propose using l1/l2 regularization upon the activation probabilities of hidden units in restricted Boltzmann machines to capture the local dependencies among hidde...
متن کاملJoint spectral distribution modeling using restricted boltzmann machines for voice conversion
This paper presents a new spectral modeling and conversion method for voice conversion. In contrast to the conventional Gaussian mixture model (GMM) based methods, we use restricted Boltzmann machines (RBMs) as probability density models to model the joint distributions of source and target spectral features. The Gaussian distribution in each mixture of GMM is replaced by an RBM, which can bett...
متن کاملEnhanced Gradient for Learning Boltzmann Machines
Boltzmann machines are often used as building blocks in greedy learning of deep networks. However, training even a simplified model, known as restricted Boltzmann machine, can be extremely laborious: Traditional learning algorithms often converge only with the right choice of the learning rate scheduling and the scale of the initial weights. They are also sensitive to specific data representati...
متن کاملTransformation Equivariant Boltzmann Machines
We develop a novel modeling framework for Boltzmann machines, augmenting each hidden unit with a latent transformation assignment variable which describes the selection of the transformed view of the canonical connection weights associated with the unit. This enables the inferences of the model to transform in response to transformed input data in a stable and predictable way, and avoids learni...
