Deep Restricted Boltzmann Networks

Understand

Building a good generative model for image has long been an important topic in computer vision and machine learning.

• Restricted Boltzmann machine (RBM) is one of such models that is simple but powerful.
• However, its restricted form also has placed heavy constraints on the models representation power and scalability.
• Many extensions have been invented based on RBM in order to produce deeper architectures with greater power.
