Application of any deep learning toolset on given (difficult) data. We prefer TensorFlow but you may use another library (CNTK, Caffe, DeepLearning4j, ...) The goal is to get the best results on increasingly more difficult datasets. 3 FAQ Q: Why we cannot use specialized libraries in projects? 4 FAQ Q: Why we cannot use specialized libraries in projects? A: In order to "touch" the low level implementation details of the algorithms. You should not even use libraries for linear algebra and numerical methods, so that you will be confronted with rounding errors and numerical instabilities. 4 FAQ Q: Why we cannot use specialized libraries in projects? A: In order to "touch" the low level implementation details of the algorithms. You should not even use libraries for linear algebra and numerical methods, so that you will be confronted with rounding errors and numerical instabilities.

How large network? For simplicity, I will illustrate the reasoning on MLP + mse. Later we will see other topologies and error functions with different but always somewhat related issues. 121 Issues in gradient descent Small networks: Lots of local minima where the descent gets stuck.

Recent studies show that for sufficiently large networks all local minima have low values of the error function. 122 Issues in gradient descent Small networks: Lots of local minima where the descent gets stuck. The model identifiability problem: Swapping incoming weights of neurons i and j leaves the same network topology – weight space symmetry. Recent studies show that for sufficiently large networks all local minima have low values of the error function. Saddle points One can show (by a combinatorial argument) that larger networks have exponentially more saddle points than local minima. 122 Issues in gradient descent – too slow descent flat regions E.g. if the inner potentials are too large (in abs. value), then their derivative is extremely small. 123 Issues in gradient descent – too fast descent steep cliffs: the gradient is extremely large, descent skips important weight vectors 124 Issues in gradient descent – local vs global structure What if we initialize on the left? 125 Gradient Descent in Large Networks Theorem Assume (roughly), activation functions: "smooth" ReLU (softplus) σ(z) = log(1 + exp(z)) In general: Smooth, non-polynomial, analytic, Lipschitzs. inputs xk of Euclidean norm equal to 1, desired values dk satisfying |dk | ∈ O(1), the number of hidden neurons per layer sufficiently large (polynomial in certain numerical characteristics of inputs roughly measuring their similarity, and exponential in the depth of the network), the learning rate constant and sufficiently small. The gradient descent converges (with high probability) to a global minimum with zero error at linear rate. Later we get to a special type of networks called ResNet where the above result demands only polynomially many neurons per layer (w.r.t. depth). 126 Issues in computing the gradient vanishing and exploding gradients ∂Ek ∂yj = yj − dkj for j ∈ Y ∂Ek ∂yj = r∈j→ ∂Ek ∂yr · σr (ξr ) · wrj for j ∈ Z (Y ∪ X) 127 Issues in computing the gradient vanishing and exploding gradients ∂Ek ∂yj = yj − dkj for j ∈ Y ∂Ek ∂yj = r∈j→ ∂Ek ∂yr · σr (ξr ) · wrj for j ∈ Z (Y ∪ X) inexact gradient computation: Minibatch gradient is only an estimate of the true gradient. Note that the variance of the estimate is (roughly) σ/ √ m where m is the size of the minibatch and σ is the variance of the gradient estimate for a single training example. (E.g. minibatch size 10 000 means 100 times more computation than the size 100 but gives only 10 times less variance.) 127 Minibatch size Larger batches provide a more accurate estimate of the gradient, but with less than linear returns. 128 Minibatch size Larger batches provide a more accurate estimate of the gradient, but with less than linear returns.

Small batches can offer a regularizing effect, perhaps due to the noise they add to the learning process. It has been observed in practice that when using a larger batch there is a degradation in the quality of the model, as measured by its ability to generalize.

Search for the learning rate using the learning monitoring: Search through values from small (e.g. 0.001) to (0.1), possibly multiplying by 2. Train for several epochs, observe the learning curves (see cross-validation later). 133 Adaptive learning rate Power scheduling: Set (t) = 0/(1 + t/s) where 0 is an initial learning rate and s a number of steps (after s steps the learning rate is 0/2, after 2s it is 0/3 etc.) 134 Adaptive learning rate Power scheduling: Set (t) = 0/(1 + t/s) where 0 is an initial learning rate and s a number of steps (after s steps the learning rate is 0/2, after 2s it is 0/3 etc.) Exponential scheduling: Set (t) = 0 · 0.1t/s .

(the learning rate decays faster than in the power scheduling) Piecewise constant scheduling: A constant learning rate for a number of steps/epochs, then a smaller learning rate, and so on. 134 Adaptive learning rate Power scheduling: Set (t) = 0/(1 + t/s) where 0 is an initial learning rate and s a number of steps (after s steps the learning rate is 0/2, after 2s it is 0/3 etc.) Exponential scheduling: Set (t) = 0 · 0.1t/s . (the learning rate decays faster than in the power scheduling) Piecewise constant scheduling: A constant learning rate for a number of steps/epochs, then a smaller learning rate, and so on. 1cycle scheduling: Start by increasing the initial learning rate from 0 linearly to 1 (approx. 1 = 10 0) halfway through training. Then decrease from 1 linearly to 0. Finish by dropping the learning rate by several orders of magnitude (still linearly). According to a 2018 paper by Leslie Smith this may converge much faster (100 epochs vs 800 epochs on CIFAR10 dataset). For comparison of some methods see: AN EMPIRICAL STUDY OF LEARNING RATES IN DEEP NEURAL NETWORKS FOR SPEECH RECOGNITION, Senior et al 134 AdaGrad So far we have considered fixed schedules for learning rates. It is better to have larger rates for weights with smaller updates, smaller rates for weights with larger updates. AdaGrad uses individually adapting learning rate for each weight. 135 SGD with AdaGrad weights in w(0) are randomly initialized to values close to 0 in the step t + 1 (here t = 0, 1, 2 . . .), compute w(t+1) : Choose (randomly) a minibatch T ⊆ {1, . . . , p} Compute w (t+1) ji = w (t) ji + ∆w (t) ji 136 SGD with AdaGrad weights in w(0) are randomly initialized to values close to 0 in the step t + 1 (here t = 0, 1, 2 . . .), compute w(t+1) : Choose (randomly) a minibatch T ⊆ {1, . . . , p} Compute w (t+1) ji = w (t) ji + ∆w (t) ji where ∆w (t) ji = − η r (t) ji + δ · k∈T ∂Ek ∂wji (w(t) ) and r (t) ji = r (t−1) ji +   k∈T ∂Ek ∂wji (w(t) )   2 η is a constant expressing the influence of the learning rate, typically 0.01. δ > 0 is a smoothing term (typically 1e-8) avoiding division by 0. 136 RMSProp The main disadvantage of AdaGrad is the accumulation of the gradient throughout the whole learning process. In case the learning needs to get over several "hills" before settling in a deep "valley", the weight updates get far too small before getting to it. RMSProp uses an exponentially decaying average to discard history from the extreme past so that it can converge rapidly after finding a convex bowl, as if it were an instance of the AdaGrad algorithm initialized within that bowl. 137 SGD with RMSProp weights in w(0) are randomly initialized to values close to 0 in the step t + 1 (here t = 0, 1, 2 . . .), compute w(t+1) : Choose (randomly) a minibatch T ⊆ {1, . . . , p} Compute w (t+1) ji = w (t) ji + ∆w (t) ji 138 SGD with RMSProp weights in w(0) are randomly initialized to values close to 0 in the step t + 1 (here t = 0, 1, 2 . . .), compute w(t+1) : Choose (randomly) a minibatch T ⊆ {1, . . . , p} Compute w (t+1) ji = w (t) ji + ∆w (t) ji where ∆w (t) ji = − η r (t) ji + δ · k∈T ∂Ek ∂wji (w(t) ) and r (t) ji = ρr (t−1) ji + (1 − ρ)   k∈T ∂Ek ∂wji (w(t) )   2 η is a constant expressing the influence of the learning rate (Hinton suggests ρ = 0.9 and η = 0.001). δ > 0 is a smoothing term (typically 1e-8) avoiding division by 0. 138 Other optimization methods There are more methods such as AdaDelta, Adam (roughly RMSProp combined with momentum), etc. A natural question: Which algorithm should one choose? 139 Other optimization methods There are more methods such as AdaDelta, Adam (roughly RMSProp combined with momentum), etc. A natural question: Which algorithm should one choose? Unfortunately, there is currently no consensus on this point. According to a recent study, the family of algorithms with adaptive learning rates (represented by RMSProp and AdaDelta) performed fairly robustly, no single best algorithm has emerged. 139 Other optimization methods There are more methods such as AdaDelta, Adam (roughly RMSProp combined with momentum), etc. A natural question: Which algorithm should one choose? Unfortunately, there is currently no consensus on this point. According to a recent study, the family of algorithms with adaptive learning rates (represented by RMSProp and AdaDelta) performed fairly robustly, no single best algorithm has emerged. Currently, the most popular optimization algorithms actively in use include SGD, SGD with momentum, RMSProp, RMSProp with momentum, AdaDelta and Adam. The choice of which algorithm to use, at this point, seems to depend largely on the user’s familiarity with the algorithm. 139 Choice of (hidden) activations Generic requirements imposed on activation functions: 1. differentiability (to do gradient descent) 2. non-linearity (linear multi-layer networks are equivalent to single-layer) 3. monotonicity (local extrema of activation functions induce local extrema of the error function) 4. "linearity" (i.e. preserve as much linearity as possible; linear models are easiest to fit; find the "minimum" non-linearity needed to solve a given task) The choice of activation functions is closely related to input preprocessing and the initial choice of weights. I will illustrate the reasoning on sigmoidal functions; say few words about other activation functions later. 140 Activation functions – tanh σ(ξ) = 1.7159 · tanh(2 3 · ξ), we have limξ→∞ σ(ξ) = 1.7159 and limξ→−∞ σ(ξ) = −1.7159 141 Activation functions – tanh σ(ξ) = 1.7159 · tanh(2 3 · ξ) is almost linear on [−1, 1] 142 Activation functions – tanh first derivative: σ(ξ) = 1.7159 · tanh(2 3 · ξ) 143 Input preprocessing Some inputs may be much larger than others.

Typical standardization: average = 0 (subtract the mean) variance = 1 (divide by the standard deviation) Here the mean and standard deviation may be estimated from data (the training set). (illustration of standard deviation) 144 Initial weights (for tanh) Assume weights chosen uniformly in random from an interval [−w, w] where w depends on the number of inputs of a given neuron. 145 Initial weights (for tanh) Assume weights chosen uniformly in random from an interval [−w, w] where w depends on the number of inputs of a given neuron. Consider the activation function σ(ξ) = 1.7159 · tanh(2 3 · ξ) for all neurons. σ is almost linear on [−1, 1], σ saturates out of the interval [−4, 4] (i.e. it is close to its limit values and its derivative is close to 0. 145 Initial weights (for tanh) Assume weights chosen uniformly in random from an interval [−w, w] where w depends on the number of inputs of a given neuron. Consider the activation function σ(ξ) = 1.7159 · tanh(2 3 · ξ) for all neurons. σ is almost linear on [−1, 1], σ saturates out of the interval [−4, 4] (i.e. it is close to its limit values and its derivative is close to 0. Thus for too small w we may get (almost) linear model. for too large w (i.e. much larger than 1) the activations may get saturated and the learning will be very slow. Hence, we want to choose w so that the inner potentials of neurons will be roughly in the interval [−1, 1]. 145 Initial weights (for tanh) Standardization gives mean = 0 and variance = 1 of the input data. 146 Initial weights (for tanh) Standardization gives mean = 0 and variance = 1 of the input data. Consider a neuron j from the first layer with n inputs. Assume that its weights are chosen uniformly from [−w, w]. 146 Initial weights (for tanh) Standardization gives mean = 0 and variance = 1 of the input data. Consider a neuron j from the first layer with n inputs. Assume that its weights are chosen uniformly from [−w, w]. The rule: choose w so that the standard deviation of ξj (denote by oj) is close to the border of the interval on which σj is linear. In our case: oj ≈ 1. 146 Initial weights (for tanh) Standardization gives mean = 0 and variance = 1 of the input data. Consider a neuron j from the first layer with n inputs. Assume that its weights are chosen uniformly from [−w, w]. The rule: choose w so that the standard deviation of ξj (denote by oj) is close to the border of the interval on which σj is linear. In our case: oj ≈ 1. Our assumptions imply: oj = n 3 · w. Thus we put w = √ 3√ n . 146 Initial weights (for tanh) Standardization gives mean = 0 and variance = 1 of the input data. Consider a neuron j from the first layer with n inputs. Assume that its weights are chosen uniformly from [−w, w]. The rule: choose w so that the standard deviation of ξj (denote by oj) is close to the border of the interval on which σj is linear. In our case: oj ≈ 1. Our assumptions imply: oj = n 3 · w. Thus we put w = √ 3√ n . The same works for higher layers, n corresponds to the number of neurons in the layer one level lower. 146 Glorot & Bengio initialization The previous heuristics for weight initialization ignores variance of the gradient (i.e. it is concerned only with the "size" of activations in the forward pass). 147 Glorot & Bengio initialization The previous heuristics for weight initialization ignores variance of the gradient (i.e. it is concerned only with the "size" of activations in the forward pass). Glorot & Bengio (2010) presented a normalized initialization by choosing w uniformly from the interval:  − 6 m + n , 6 m + n   =   − 3 (m + n)/2 , 3 (m + n)/2   Here n is the number of inputs to the layer, m is the number of outputs of the layer (i.e. the number of neurons in the layer). 147 Glorot & Bengio initialization The previous heuristics for weight initialization ignores variance of the gradient (i.e. it is concerned only with the "size" of activations in the forward pass).

This is designed to compromise between the goal of initializing all layers to have the same activation variance and the goal of initializing all layers to have the same gradient variance. The formula is derived using the assumption that the network consists only of a chain of matrix multiplications, with no non-linearities. Real neural networks obviously violate this assumption, but many strategies designed for the linear model perform reasonably well on its non-linear counterparts. 147 Modern activation functions For hidden neurons sigmoidal functions are often substituted with piece-wise linear activations functions. Most prominent is ReLU: σ(ξ) = max{0, ξ} THE default activation function recommended for use with most feedforward neural networks. As close to linear function as possible; very simple; does not saturate for large potentials. Dead for negative potentials. 148 More modern activation functions Leaky ReLU (greenboard): Generalizes ReLU, not dead for negative potentials. Experimentally not much better than ReLU. 149 More modern activation functions Leaky ReLU (greenboard): Generalizes ReLU, not dead for negative potentials. Experimentally not much better than ReLU.

According to Aurélien Géron: SELU > ELU > leakyReLU > ReLU > tanh > logistic For discussion see: Hands-On Machine Learning with Scikit-Learn, Keras, and TensorFlow: Concepts, Tools, and Techniques to Build Intelligent Systems, Aurélien Géron 151 Output neurons The choice of activation functions for output units depends on the concrete applications. For regression (function approximation) the output is typically linear. 152 Output neurons The choice of activation functions for output units depends on the concrete applications. For regression (function approximation) the output is typically linear. For classification, the current activation functions of choice are logistic sigmoid – binary classification softmax: Given an output neuron j ∈ Y yj = σj(ξj) = eξj i∈Y eξi for multi-class classification. 152 Output neurons The choice of activation functions for output units depends on the concrete applications. For regression (function approximation) the output is typically linear. For classification, the current activation functions of choice are logistic sigmoid – binary classification softmax: Given an output neuron j ∈ Y yj = σj(ξj) = eξj i∈Y eξi for multi-class classification. The error function used with softmax (assuming that the target values dkj are from {0, 1}) is typically cross-entropy: − 1 p p k=1 j∈Y dkj ln(yj) ... which somewhat corresponds to the maximum likelihood principle. 152 Sigmoidal outputs with cross-entropy – in detail Consider Binary classification, two classes {0, 1} One output neuron j, its activation logistic sigmoid σj(ξj) = 1 1 + e−ξj The output of the network is y = σj(ξj). 153 Sigmoidal outputs with cross-entropy – in detail Consider Binary classification, two classes {0, 1} One output neuron j, its activation logistic sigmoid σj(ξj) = 1 1 + e−ξj The output of the network is y = σj(ξj). For a training set T = xk , dk k = 1, . . . , p (here xk ∈ R|X| and dk ∈ R), the cross-entropy looks like this: Ecross = − 1 p p k=1 [dk ln(yk ) + (1 − dk ) ln(1 − yk )] where yk is the output of the network for the k-th training input xk , and dk is the k-th desired output. 153 Generalization Intuition: Generalization = ability to cope with new unseen instances. Data are mostly noisy, so it is not good idea to fit exactly. In case of function approximation, the network should not return exact results as in the training set. 154 Generalization Intuition: Generalization = ability to cope with new unseen instances. Data are mostly noisy, so it is not good idea to fit exactly. In case of function approximation, the network should not return exact results as in the training set. More formally: It is typically assumed that the training set has been generated as follows: dkj = gj(xk ) + Θkj where gj is the "underlying" function corresponding to the output neuron j ∈ Y and Θkj is random noise. The network should fit gj not the noise. Methods improving generalization are called regularization methods. 154 Regularization Regularization is a big issue in neural networks, as they typically use a huge amount of parameters and thus are very susceptible to overfitting. 155 Regularization Regularization is a big issue in neural networks, as they typically use a huge amount of parameters and thus are very susceptible to overfitting. von Neumann: "With four parameters I can fit an elephant, and with five I can make him wiggle his trunk." ... and I ask you prof. Neumann: What can you fit with 40GB of parameters?? 155 Early stopping Early stopping means that we stop learning before it reaches a minimum of the error E. When to stop? 156 Early stopping Early stopping means that we stop learning before it reaches a minimum of the error E. When to stop? In many applications the error function is not the main thing we want to optimize. E.g. in the case of a trading system, we typically want to maximize our profit not to minimize (strange) error functions designed to be easily differentiable. Also, as noted before, minimizing E completely is not good for generalization. For start: We may employ standard approach of training on one set and stopping on another one. 156 Early stopping Divide your dataset into several subsets: training set (e.g. 60%) – train the network here validation set (e.g. 20%) – use to stop the training (possibly) test set (e.g. 20%) – use to compare trained models What to use as a stopping rule? 157 Early stopping Divide your dataset into several subsets: training set (e.g. 60%) – train the network here validation set (e.g. 20%) – use to stop the training (possibly) test set (e.g. 20%) – use to compare trained models What to use as a stopping rule? You may observe E (or any other function of interest) on the validation set, if it does not improve for last k steps, stop. Alternatively, you may observe the gradient, if it is small for some time, stop. (recent studies shown that this traditional rule is not too good: it may happen that the gradient is larger close to minimum values; on the other hand, E does not have to be evaluated which saves time. To compare models you may use ML techniques such as various types of cross-validation etc. 157 Size of the network Similar problem as in the case of the training duration: Too small network is not able to capture intrinsic properties of the training set. Large networks overfit faster. Solution: Optimal number of neurons :-) 158 Size of the network Similar problem as in the case of the training duration: Too small network is not able to capture intrinsic properties of the training set. Large networks overfit faster. Solution: Optimal number of neurons :-) there are some (useless) theoretical bounds there are algorithms dynamically adding/removing neurons (not much use nowadays) In practice: start using a rule of thumb: the number of neurons ≈ ten times less than the number of training instances. experiment, experiment, experiment. 158 Feature extraction Consider a two layer network. Hidden neurons are supposed to represent "patterns" in the inputs. Example: Network 64-2-3 for letter classification: 159 Ensemble methods Techniques for reducing generalization error by combining several models. The reason that ensemble methods work is that different models will usually not make all the same errors on the test set. Idea: Train several different models separately, then have all of the models vote on the output for test examples. 160 Ensemble methods Techniques for reducing generalization error by combining several models. The reason that ensemble methods work is that different models will usually not make all the same errors on the test set. Idea: Train several different models separately, then have all of the models vote on the output for test examples. Bagging: Generate k training sets T1, ..., Tk by sampling from T uniformly with replacement. If the number of samples is |T |, then on average |Ti| = (1 − 1/e)|T |. For each i, train a model Mi on Ti. Combine outputs of the models: for regression by averaging, for classification by (majority) voting. 160 Dropout The algorithm: In every step of the gradient descent choose randomly a set N of neurons, each neuron is included in N independently with probability 1/2, (in practice, different probabilities are used as well). do forward and backward propagations only using the selected neurons (i.e. leave weights of the other neurons unchanged) 161 Dropout The algorithm: In every step of the gradient descent choose randomly a set N of neurons, each neuron is included in N independently with probability 1/2, (in practice, different probabilities are used as well). do forward and backward propagations only using the selected neurons (i.e. leave weights of the other neurons unchanged) Dropout resembles bagging: Large ensemble of neural networks is trained "at once" on parts of the data. Dropout is not exactly the same as bagging: The models share parameters, with each model inheriting a different subset of parameters from the parent neural network. This parameter sharing makes it possible to represent an exponential number of models with a tractable amount of memory. In the case of bagging, each model is trained to convergence on its respective training set. This would be infeasible for large networks/training sets. 161 Weight decay and L2 regularization Generalization can be improved by removing "unimportant" weights. Penalising large weights gives stronger indication about their importance. 162 Weight decay and L2 regularization Generalization can be improved by removing "unimportant" weights. Penalising large weights gives stronger indication about their importance. In every step we decrease weights (multiplicatively) as follows: w (t+1) ji = (1 − ζ)(w (t) ji + ∆w (t) ji ) Intuition: Unimportant weights will be pushed to 0, important weights will survive the decay. 162 Weight decay and L2 regularization Generalization can be improved by removing "unimportant" weights. Penalising large weights gives stronger indication about their importance. In every step we decrease weights (multiplicatively) as follows: w (t+1) ji = (1 − ζ)(w (t) ji + ∆w (t) ji ) Intuition: Unimportant weights will be pushed to 0, important weights will survive the decay. Weight decay is equivalent to the gradient descent with a constant learning rate ε and the following error function: E (w) = E(w) + 2ζ ε (w · w) Here 2ζ ε (w · w) is the L2 regularization that penalizes large weights. 162 More optimization, regularization ...

Problems: If the driver is gentle enough, the car never learns how to get out of dangerous situations. A solution may be turn off learning for a moment, then suddenly switch on, and let the net catch on, let the driver drive as if being insane (dangerous, possibly expensive). The real view out of the front window is repetitive and boring, the net would overfit on few examples. 168 ALVINN – Selection of training examples Problem with a "good" driver is solved as follows: 169 ALVINN – Selection of training examples Problem with a "good" driver is solved as follows: 15 distorted copies of each image: desired output generated for each copy 169 ALVINN – Selection of training examples Problem with a "good" driver is solved as follows: 15 distorted copies of each image: desired output generated for each copy "Boring" images solved as follows: a buffer of 200 images (including 15 copies of the original), in every step the system trains on the buffer after several updates a new image is captured, 15 copies are made and they will substitute 15 images in the buffer (5 chosen randomly, 10 with the smallest error). 169 ALVINN - learning pure backpropagation constant learning rate momentum, slowly increasing.

All we need to achieve this best result so far are many hidden layers, many neurons per layer, numerous deformed training images, and graphics cards to greatly speed up learning.

Neuron is "standard": Computes a weighted sum of its inputs, applies an activation function. 178 Convolutional networks - stride length Then we slide the local receptive field over by one pixel to the right (i.e., by one neuron), to connect to a second hidden neuron: The "size" of the slide is called stride length. The group of all such neurons is feature map. all these neurons share weights and biases! 179 Feature maps Each feature map represents a property of the input that is supposed to be spatially invariant.

Andrej Karpathy: ...the task of labeling images with 5 out of 1000 categories quickly turned out to be extremely challenging, even for some friends in the lab who have been working on ILSVRC and its classes for a while. First we thought we would put it up on [Amazon Mechanical Turk]. Then we thought we could recruit paid undergrads. Then I organized a labeling party of intense labeling effort only among the (expert labelers) in our lab. Then I developed a modified interface that used GoogLeNet predictions to prune the number of categories from 1000 to only about 100. It was still too hard - people kept missing categories and getting up to ranges of 13-15% error rates. In the end I realized that to get anywhere competitively close to GoogLeNet, it was most efficient if I sat down and went through the painfully long training process and the subsequent careful annotation process myself... The labeling happened at a rate of about 1 per minute, but this decreased over time... Some images are easily recognized, while some images (such as those of fine-grained breeds of dogs, birds, or monkeys) can require multiple minutes of concentrated effort. I became very good at identifying breeds of dogs... Based on the sample of images I worked on, the GoogLeNet classification error turned out to be 6.8%... My own error in the end turned out to be 5.1%, approximately 1.7% better. 200 Does it really work? 201 Convolutional networks – theory 202 Convolutional network 203 Convolutional layers Every neuron is connected with a (typically small) receptive field of neurons in the lower layer.

Two networks: Generator: A network computing a function G : Rk → Rn which takes a random input z with a distribution pz (e.g. multivariate normal distribution) and returns G(z) which should follow the target probability distribution. E.g. G(z) could be realistically looking faces. Discriminator: A network computing a function D : Rn → [0, 1] that given x ∈ Rn gives a probability D(x) that x is not "generated" by G. E.g. x can be an image, D(x) is a probability that it is a true face of an existing person. What error function will "motivate" G to generate realistically and D to discriminate appropriately? 271 Generative adversarial networks – error function Let T = {x1, . . . , xp} be a training multiset (or a minibatch).

The gradient computed using Backpropagation: MLP, Convolutional, Recurrent (LSTM) (Simulations: RBM) 312 Deeper thoughts Most neural network models are universal approximators (i.e. capable of approximating any reasonable function), but it is difficult to find the appropriate configuration → such configuration can be learned efficiently (without guarantees of course) Depth is stronger than size: deep networks are more succinct in their representation but are harder to train: Do not forget the vanishin/exploding gradient problem! Weight tying = single most effective trick in the history of neural networks! 313
