In the 1980's, new learning algorithms for neural networks promised to solve difficult classification tasks, like speech or object recognition, by learning many layers of non-linear features. The results were disappointing for two reasons: There was never enough labeled data to learn millions of complicated features and the learning was much too slow in deep neural networks with many layers of features. These problems can now be overcome by learning one layer of features at a time and by changing the goal of learning. Instead of trying to predict the labels, the learning algorithm tries to create a generative model that produces data which looks just like the unlabeled training data. These new neural networks outperform other machine learning methods when labeled data is scarce but unlabeled data is plentiful. An application to very fast document retrieval will be described.

Generative-discriminative Hybrid Technique We plan to use a technique that combines two kinds of learning algorithms: discriminative and generative. We plan to employ Bayesian networks in the generative phase, and SVM in the discriminative phase. Algorithms under the generative framework try to find a statistical model that best represents the data. The predictions are then based on the likelihood scores derived from the model. This category includes algorithms such as Hidden Markov Models (HMM) [1], Gaussian Mixture Models (GMM) [2] and more complicated graphical models such as Bayesian networks [3].
