Improving generalization performance using double backpropagation

Drucker, H., Le Cun, Y.·1992·IEEE Transactions on Neural Networks

Abstract

In order to generalize from a training set to a test set, it is desirable that small changes in the input space of a pattern do not change the output components. This can be done by forcing this behavior as part of the training algorithm. This is done in double backpropagation by forming an energy function that is the sum of the normal energy term found in backpropagation and an additional term that is a function of the Jacobian. Significant improvement is shown with different architectures and different test sets, especially with architectures that had previously been shown to have very good performance when trained using backpropagation. It is shown that double backpropagation, as compared to backpropagation, creates weights that are smaller, thereby causing the output of the neurons to spend more time in the linear region.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
