Talk:Boltzmann machine
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Is the Boltzmann machine the same as a Conditional Random Field? If so that should be mentioned somewhere!
[edit] The threshold
What is the importance of the threshold parameter? How is it set?
[edit] The Training Section
I have a problem understanding what is P+(Vα). P+ is the distribution of the states after the values for Vα are fixed. So P+(Vα) should be 1 for those fixed values and 0 for any other values to Vα.
Also, what does α iterate over in the summation for G?
[edit] The cost function
What is the cost function? What cost does it measure? How do we train the network if we have more than one input?
