Consistent Sparse Deep Learning: Theory and Computation
一致稀疏深度学习:理论与计算
Deep learning has been the engine powering many successes of data science. However, the deep neural network (DNN), as the basic model of deep learning, is often excessively over-parameterized, causing many difficulties in training, prediction and interpretation. We propose a frequentist-like method for learning sparse DNNs and justify its consistency under the Bayesian framework: the proposed method could learn a sparse DNN with at most O(n/ log (n)) connections and nice…
