Abstract
- Unsupervised feature extractors are known to perform an efficient and discriminative representation of data. Insight into the mappings they perform and human ability to understand them, however, remain very limited. This is especially prominent when multilayer deep learning architectures are used. This paper demonstrates how to remove these bottlenecks within the architecture of non-negativity constrained autoencoder. It is shown that using both L1 and L2 regularizations that induce non-negativity of weights, most of the weights in the network become constrained to be non-negative, thereby resulting into a more understandable structure with minute deterioration in classification accuracy. Also, this proposed approach extracts features that are more sparse and produces additional output layer sparsification. The method is analyzed for accuracy and feature interpretation on the MNIST data, the NORB normalized uniform object data, and the Reuters text categorization data set. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
