Model selection for Discriminative Restricted Boltzmann Machines throughn meta-heuristic techniques

摘要

Discriminative learning of Restricted Boltzmann Machines has been recently introduced as an alternative to provide a self-contained approach for both unsupervised feature learning and classification purposes. However, one of the main problems faced by researchers interested in such approach concerns with a proper selection of its parameters, which play an important role in its final performance. In this paper, we introduced some meta-heuristic techniques for this purpose, as well as we showed th
