Backpropagating dE/dy by Geoffrey Hinton

1. Convert the disprepancy between each output and its target value into an error derivative.

E = 1 / 2 Sigma (Tj - Yj)^2

j in Output

dE / dYj = - (Tj -Yj)

2. Compute an error derivative in each hidden layer from error derivatives in the layer above.

dE / dZj = dYj / dZj * (dE / dYj)

, where Zj is the sum of all outputs of i hidden units.

, where Yi is the output of i hidden unit.

, where Yj is the output of j unit

dE / dZj = Yj (1 - Yj) * (dE / dYj)

, where Yj (1 - Yj) is dY / dZ of a nonlinear logic unit of y = 1 / (1 + e ^ -Z)

, where dY / dZ is y (1 - y)

dE / dYi = Sigma(j) ( dZj / dYi ) * (dE / dZj)

dE / dYi = Sigma(j) Wij * (dE / dZj)

,where dE / dZj is already computed in above layer.

thus,

dE / dWij = (dZj / dWij) * (dE / dZj)

dE / dWij = Yi * (dE / dZj)

Proof:

y = 1 / (1 + e^-Z) = (1 + e^-Z)^-1

thus, dy/dz = -1 (-e^-z) / (1 + e^-z)^2

dy/dz = 1 / (1 + e^-z) * (e^-z / (1 + e^-z) ) = y ( 1 - y)

because, (e^-z) / (1 + e^-z) = ((1 + e^-z) - 1) / (1 + e^-z)

= (1 + e^-z) / (1 + e^-z) * ( -1 / ( 1 + e^-z) ) = 1 - y

How to project a camera plane A to a camera plane B

How to Create a holographic display and camcorder In the last part of the series "How to Create a Holographic Display and Camcorder", I talked about what the interest points, descriptors, and features to find the same object in two photos. In this part of the series, I'll talk about how to extract the depth of the object in two photos by calculating the disparity between the photos. In order to that, we need to construct a triangle mesh between correspondences. To construct a mesh, we will use Delaunnay triagulation. Delaunnay Triagulation - It minimizes angles of all triangles, while the sigma of triangles is maximized. The reason for the triangulation is to do a piece wise affine transformation for each triangle mapped from a projective plane A to a projective plane B. A projective plane A is of a camera projective view at time t, while a projective plane B is of a camera projective view at time t+1. (or, at t-1. It really doesn't matter)...

How to create a holographic camcorder

Since the invention of a camcorder, we haven't seen much of advancement of a video camcorder. Sure, there are few interesting, new features like capturing video in 360 or taking high resolution 4K content. But the content is still in 2D and we still watch it on a 2D display. Have you seen the movie Minority Report (2002)? There is a scene where Tom Cruise is watching a video recording of his lost son in 3D or holographically. Here is a video clip of this scene. I have been waiting for the technological advancement to do this, but it's not here yet. So I decided to build one myself. In order to build a holographic video camcorder, we need two devices. 1) a video recorder - a recorder which captures the video content in 3D or holographically. 2) a video display - a display device which shows the recorded holographic content in 3D or holographically. Do we have a technology to record a video, holographically. Yes, we can now do it, and I'll e...

Creating an optical computer

Creating an optical computer Note on creating an optical computer. What is Optical Computer? A laptop is a microchip based computer and uses electricity and transisters to compute. An optical computer uses photons to compute. How does it compare to a typical laptop? A modern desktop computer has about 5 TFLOPS (5 x 10^16 floating calculations per second). With an optical computer, there is no limit in the calcuations per second. Is an optical computer faster than a quantuam computer? In 2016, the fastest known quantum computer has 2000 qubits, which is 1000 faster than 512 qubits. With an optical computer, there is no artificial limitation like 2000 or 500 qubits. What's the theoretical compute limit on an optical computer? There is a limit of speed of light. For now, the only artificial limitation is how we design the first prototype. How much electricity energy does it require? The first POC should use less than 1...
