Wake-sleep algorithm

The wake-sleep algorithm is an unsupervised learning algorithm for a stochastic multilayer neural network. The algorithm adjusts the parameters so as to produce a good density estimator. There are two learning phases, the “wake” phase and the “sleep” phase, which are performed alternately. It was first designed as a model for brain functioning using variational Bayesian learning. After that, the algorithm was adapted to machine learning. It can be viewed as a way to train a Helmholtz Machine. It can also be used in Deep Belief Networks (DBN). (Wikipedia).

Where Do You Go When You Go To Sleep?

We spend a third of our lives asleep. Every organism on Earth—from rats to dolphins to fruit flies to microorganisms—relies on sleep for its survival, yet science is still wrestling with a fundamental question: Why does sleep exist? During Shakespeare and Cervantes’ time, sleep was likened

DreamCoder: Growing generalizable, interpretable knowledge with wake-sleep Bayesian program learning

#dreamcoder #programsynthesis #symbolicreasoning Classic Machine Learning struggles with few-shot generalization for tasks where humans can easily generalize from just a handful of examples, for example sorting a list of numbers. Humans do this by coming up with a short program, or algori

A neurally plausible model learns successor representations in partially observable environments

Successor representations are a mid-point between model-based and model-free reinforcement learning. This paper learns successor representation in environments where only incomplete information is available. Abstract: Animals need to devise strategies to maximize returns while interacting
