  3. 17. Prediction of appropriate L2 regularization strengths through Bayesian formalism

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Beräkningsbiologi och biologisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för astronomi och teoretisk fysik - Genomgår omorganisation

    Author : Alexander Degener; [2022]
    Keywords : Machine learning; Artificial Neural Network; L2 regularization strength; Bayesian formalism; Classification tasks; Physics and Astronomy;

    Abstract : This paper proposes and investigates a Bayesian relation between optimal L2 regularization strengths and the number of training patterns and hidden nodes used for an artificial neural network. The results support the proposed dependence for number of training patterns, while the dependence on hidden architecture was less clear. READ MORE

  5. 19. Active Learning for Solving Expensive Optimization Problems

    University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för informationsteknologi

    Author : Siwei Fu; [2022]
    Keywords : ;

    Abstract : Many practical engineering and computer science problems can be translated into a global otimization problem where the task is to find the best (optimal) vector 𝒙𝒙∗ that gives the smallest possible function value 𝑓𝑓 = 𝑓𝑓(𝒙𝒙∗) for some function 𝑓𝑓() of interest. Often the function 𝑓𝑓() is expensive in the sense that it cannot be easily evaluated computationally or experimentally in terms of time and/or resources required. READ MORE
