The Geometric Structure of Generalized Softmax Learning

Xiangxiang Xu, Shao‐Lun Huang, Lizhong Zheng, Lin Zhang · 2018

In this paper, we formulate the generalized softmax learning (GSL) problem, as a symmetric extension of the softmax regression problem. We further study the geometric structure of GSL and demonstrate the equivalence of GSL and the original softmax regression problem. Besides, this geometric structure indicates the symmetry between a neural network and its reverse network, and the symmetric roles of the weights and feature in a neural network. Finally, we present a numerical simulation to verify these symmetry properties in neural networks.
