This demo nstrates the use of the reversible jump MCMC simulated annealing for neural networks. This algorithm enables us to maximise the joint posterior distribution of the network parameters and the number of basis function. It performs a global search in the joint space of the parameters and number of parameters, thereby surmounting the problem of local minima. It allows the user to choose among various model selection criteria, including AIC, BIC and MDL

This demo nstrates how to use the sequential Monte Carlo algorithm with reversible jump MCMC steps to perform model selection in neural networks. We treat both the model dimension (number of neurons) and model parameters as unknowns. The derivation and details are presented in: Christophe Andrieu, Nando de Freitas and Arnaud Doucet. Sequential Bayesian Estimation and Model Selection Applied to Neural Networks . Technical report CUED/F-INFENG/TR 341, Cambridge University Department of Engineering, June 1999. After downloading the file, type "tar -xf version2.tar" to uncompress it. This creates the directory version2 containing the required m files. Go to this directory, load matlab5 and type "smcdemo1". In the header of the demo file, one can select to monitor the simulation progress (with par.doPlot=1) and modify the simulation parameters.

This demo nstrates the use of the reversible jump MCMC algorithm for neural networks. It uses a hierarchical full Bayesian model for neural networks. This model treats the model dimension (number of neurons), model parameters, regularisation parameters and noise parameters as random variables that need to be estimated. The derivations and proof of geometric convergence are presented, in detail, in: Christophe Andrieu, Nando de Freitas and Arnaud Doucet. Robust Full Bayesian Learning for Neural Networks. Technical report CUED/F-INFENG/TR 343, Cambridge University Department of Engineering, May 1999. After downloading the file, type "tar -xf rjMCMC.tar" to uncompress it. This creates the directory rjMCMC containing the required m files. Go to this directory, load matlab5 and type "rjdemo1". In the header of the demo file, one can select to monitor the simulation progress (with par.doPlot=1) and modify the simulation parameters.
