Abstract

This paper proposes a continuous stochastic generative model that offers an improved ability to model analogue data, with a simple and reliable learning algorithm. The architecture forms a continuous restricted Boltzmann Machine, with a novel learning algorithm. The capabilities of the model are demonstrated with both artificial and real data.
