Predictive sparse decomposition¶

  • hybrid between sparse coding and parametric autoencoder

  • the model consist of:

    • parametric encoder \(f(x)\)

    • decoder \(g(h)\)

  • hidden code \(h\) is found by minimizing: $\( ||x - g(h)||^2 + \lambda |h|_1 + \gamma ||h - f(x)||^2 \)$

  • PSD is an example of learned approximate inference
