Study Notes

Vanishing Gradient Problem

  • If the derived function is 0, the weights won't be updated, and the convergence to an optimal solution is slow or unreachable
  • This issue is less prevalent in ReLU compared to other activation functions, due to its graph properties
  • Small or zero values can occur in sigmoid and tanh functions when input values are too small (negative) or too large

Pruning

  • Assumes that inactive neurons can be removed from the network to improve efficiency and reduce overfitting
  • Inactive neurons are characterized by outputs close to zero
  • Two approaches to find and remove inactive neurons:
    • Split the graph into subgraphs until eigenvalues are small enough
    • Compute all eigenpairs

Algorithm Clustering as Graph Partitioning

  • Maps feature space to nodes and computes relationships between nodes as edge weights
  • Splits the graph into subgraphs until the desired number of clusters is met

Min Cut

  • Splits the graph into subclusters by computing the cut with the minimum value possible (sum of edge weights)
  • Cons: may split isolated nodes with respect to clusters

Graph Theory Notions

  • Degree of a node: 𝑑𝑖 = ∑ 𝑤𝑖𝑗 𝑗
  • Volume of a set: 𝑣𝑜𝑙(𝐴) = ∑ 𝑑𝑖 𝑖∈𝐴

Normalized Cut

  • Objective: split the graph while minimizing the value of Ncut
  • Goal: achieve high cohesiveness within clusters and well-separated clusters
  • Problem: normalized cut is NPC, so approximations are required

Graph Laplacian

  • A matrix used in graph theory and image analysis to represent a graph's relations and connection properties
  • Compact representation of a graph
