Abstract

Discriminative learning of Restricted Boltzmann Machines has been recently introduced as an alternative to provide a self-contained approach for both unsupervised feature learning and classification purposes. However, one of the main problems faced by researchers interested in such approach concerns with a proper selection of its parameters, which play an important role in its final performance. In this paper, we introduced some meta-heuristic techniques for this purpose, as well as we showed they can be more accurate than a random search, which is commonly used technique in several works.
