The global optimum of shallow neural network is attained by ridgelet transform

Sho Sonoda, Isao Ishikawa, Masahiro Ikeda +4

We prove that the global minimum of the backpropagation (BP) training problem of neural networks with an arbitrary nonlinear activation is given by the ridgelet transform. A series…

Transportation analysis of denoising autoencoders: a novel method for analyzing deep neural networks

Sho Sonoda, Noboru Murata

The feature map obtained from the denoising autoencoder (DAE) is investigated by determining transportation dynamics of the DAE, which is a cornerstone for deep learning. Despite t…

Estimation of neural connections from partially observed neural spikes

Taishi Iwasaki, Hideitsu Hino, Masami Tatsuno +2

Plasticity is one of the most important properties of the nervous system, which enables animals to adjust their behavior to the ever-changing external environment. Changes in synap…
