On the Information Theoretic Distance Measures and Bidirectional Helmholtz Machines

16 Jul 2018  ·  Mahdi Azarafrooz, Xuan Zhao, Sepehr Akhavan-Masouleh ·

By establishing a connection between bi-directional Helmholtz machines and information theory, we propose a generalized Helmholtz machine. Theoretical and experimental results show that given \textit{shallow} architectures, the generalized model outperforms the previous ones substantially.
