In the adaptive control literature, the learning rate is commonly referred to as gain. [2] In setting a learning rate, there is a trade-off between the rate of convergence and overshooting. While the descent direction is usually determined from the gradient of the loss function, the learning rate determines how big a step is taken in that ...
In machine learning, a probabilistic classifier is a classifier that is able to predict, given an observation of an input, a probability distribution over a set of classes, rather than only outputting the most likely class that the observation should belong to.
Machine learning (ML) is a field of study in artificial intelligence concerned with the development and study of statistical algorithms that can learn from data and generalize to unseen data, and thus perform tasks without explicit instructions. [1]
where is the instance, [] the expectation value, is a class into which an instance is classified, (|) is the conditional probability of label for instance , and () is the 0–1 loss function: L ( x , y ) = 1 − δ x , y = { 0 if x = y 1 if x ≠ y {\displaystyle L(x,y)=1-\delta _{x,y}={\begin{cases}0&{\text{if }}x=y\\1&{\text{if }}x\neq y\end ...
To briefly interrupt your fighting: Murphy (Machine Learning: A Probabilistic Perspective, 2012) does not require variance -> 0. He shows an equivalence of k-means to "hard EM" with arbitrary but fixed variance. See 11.4.2.5. --Chire 12:00, 3 December 2019 (UTC) @Chire: True, and thanks for the constructive contribution.
A probabilistic neural network (PNN) [1] is a feedforward neural network, which is widely used in classification and pattern recognition problems. In the PNN algorithm, the parent probability distribution function (PDF) of each class is approximated by a Parzen window and a non-parametric function.
An estimation procedure that is often claimed to be part of Bayesian statistics is the maximum a posteriori (MAP) estimate of an unknown quantity, that equals the mode of the posterior density with respect to some reference measure, typically the Lebesgue measure.
One can compute this directly, without using a probability distribution (distribution-free classifier); one can estimate the probability of a label given an observation, (| =) (discriminative model), and base classification on that; or one can estimate the joint distribution (,) (generative model), from that compute the conditional probability ...
