I am trying to recreate the results reported in Reducing the dimension of data with neural network autocoding olivetti face dataset with an adapted version of the digits MNIST code matlab , but I have some difficulties. It seems that no matter how many settings I make with regard to the number of epochs, bets or momentum, the stacked RBMs enter the fine tuning phase with a big mistake and therefore cannot improve significantly at the fine tuning phase. I also run into a similar problem with another real dataset.
For the first layer, I use RBM with a lower learning speed (as described in the article) and
negdata = poshidstates*vishid' + repmat(visbiases,numcases,1);
I am pretty sure that I am following the instructions in the supporting material , but I cannot achieve the correct errors.
Is there something I am missing? See the code I use for the visible RBM units shown below, and for the entire deep workout. The rest of the code can be found here .
