Problem in understanding Regularized Cost Function for neural neworks

The first term looks a normal cross-entropy loss function. The second term is a regularization term. It increases the cost function to "punish" large values for weights. It's called L2 weight-decay ( …

Quantify quality of multi label assignment

The most common evaluation metric for Multilabel tasks is, I believe, F1-score. There are two variants. Macro F1 is the average F1 score for all labels, while micro F1 score is the average F1 score fo …

Same exact model: converges with adagrad, diverges with adadelta

I have a very simple model built using Keras. What strikes me as surprising is that the very same training configs converge (i.e. training loss goes down with every epoch) when the model uses the ada …

NNs: Multiple Sigmoid + Binary Cross Entropy giving better results than Softmax + Categorica...

I am experimenting with classifying documents into one (and only one) of 20 classes ( 20_newsgroups dataset) using Keras. I'm using standard TF-IDF features and .2 validation split for this setting. …
