A MACHINE-LEARNING SYSTEM AND A METHOD FOR DETERMINING DIFFERENT OPERATING POINTS IN SUCH A SYSTEM

摘要

A machine- learning system comprising an initialiser configured to estimate an initial series of values for a latent variable; a modelling module configured to generate a response to a given input signal; and an input for inputting the initial series of values obtained from the initialiser into the modelling module as input signals therefor. The initialiser comprises: a pre-processor configured to remove constant correlations between two or more input variables; and a processor configured to apply a non-linear function to said two or more input variables to obtain a series of instantaneous correlations for use as said initial series of values for said latent variable.
