I have a training data for NN along with expected outputs. Each input is 10 dimensional vector and has 1 expected output.I have normalised the training data using Gaussian but I don't know how to normalise the outputs since it only has single dimension. Any ideas?
Example:
Raw Input Vector:-128.91, 71.076, -100.75,4.2475, -98.811, 77.219, 4.4096, -15.382, -6.1477, -361.18
Normalised Input Vector: -0.6049, 1.0412, -0.3731, 0.4912, -0.3571, 1.0918, 0.4925, 0.3296, 0.4056, -2.5168
The raw expected output for the above input is 1183.6 but I don't know how to normalise that. Should I normalise the expected output as part of the input vector?
回答1:
From the looks of your problem, you are trying to implement some sort of regression algorithm. For regression problems you don't normally normalize the outputs. For the training data you provide for a regression system, the expected output should be within the range you're expecting, or simply whatever data you have for the expected outputs.
Therefore, you can normalize the training inputs to allow the training to go faster, but you typically don't normalize the target outputs. When it comes to testing time or providing new inputs, make sure you normalize the data in the same way that you did during training. Specifically, use exactly the same parameters for normalization during training for any test inputs into the network.
