嗨，我在使用 numpy 在 python 中实现神经网络时计算检查梯度时遇到问题。我正在使用mnist数据集尝试并尝试使用小批量梯度下降。
我已经检查了数学并且在纸上看起来不错，所以也许你可以给我一个提示这里发生了什么：
编辑：一个答案让我意识到成本函数确实计算错误。然而这并不能解释梯度的问题，因为它是使用 back_prop 计算的。使用30 个 epoch 和 100 个批次的minibatch gradient下降，我在隐藏层中使用 300 个单位得到 %7 的错误率。rmsprop（learning_rate= 0.001，由于 rmsprop 而小）。
每个输入都有 768 个特征，所以对于 100 个样本，我有一个矩阵。Mnist有10个班。
X = NoSamplesxFeatures = 100x768
Y = NoSamplesxClasses = 100x10
我在完全训练时使用一个隐藏层大小为 300 的隐藏层神经网络。我的另一个问题是我是否应该使用 softmax 输出函数来计算误差……我认为不是。但我对这一切还是个新手，显而易见的事情对我来说可能很奇怪。
（注意：我知道代码很难看，但这是我在压力下完成的第一个 Python/Numpy 代码，请多多包涵）
这是 back_prof 和激活：
def sigmoid(z):
return np.true_divide(1,1 + np.exp(-z) )
#not calculated really - this the fake version to make it faster.
def sigmoid_prime(a):
return (a)*(1 - a)
def _back_prop(self,W,X,labels,f=sigmoid,fprime=sigmoid_prime,lam=0.001):
"""

"""
#Weight for first layer and hidden layer
Wl1,bl1,Wl2,bl2 = self._extract_weights(W)
# get the forward prop value
layers_outputs = self._forward_prop(W,X,f)
#from a number make a binary vector, for mnist 1x10 with all 0 but the number.
y = self.make_1_of_c_encoding(labels)
num_samples = X.shape[0] # layers_outputs[-1].shape[0]
# Dot product return Numsamples (N) x Outputs (No CLasses)
# Y is NxNo Clases

big_delta = np.zeros(Wl2.size + bl2.size + Wl1.size + bl1.size)
big_delta_wl1, big_delta_bl1, big_delta_wl2, big_delta_bl2 = self._extract_weights(big_delta)
# calculate the gradient for each training sample in the batch and accumulate it
for i,x in enumerate(X):
# Error with respect the output
dE_dy = layers_outputs[-1][i,:] - y[i,:]
# bias hidden layer
big_delta_bl2 += dE_dy
# get the error for the hiddlen layer
dE_dz_out = dE_dy * fprime(layers_outputs[-1][i,:])
#and for the input layer
dE_dhl = dE_dy.dot(Wl2.T)
#bias input layer
big_delta_bl1 += dE_dhl
small_delta_hl = dE_dhl*fprime(layers_outputs[-2][i,:])
#here calculate the gradient for the weights in the hidden and first layer
big_delta_wl2 += np.outer(layers_outputs[-2][i,:],dE_dz_out)
big_delta_wl1 += np.outer(x,small_delta_hl)
# divide by number of samples in the batch (should be done here)?
big_delta_wl2 = np.true_divide(big_delta_wl2,num_samples) + lam*Wl2*2
big_delta_bl2 = np.true_divide(big_delta_bl2,num_samples)
big_delta_wl1 = np.true_divide(big_delta_wl1,num_samples) + lam*Wl1*2
big_delta_bl1 = np.true_divide(big_delta_bl1,num_samples)
# return
return np.concatenate([big_delta_wl1.ravel(),
big_delta_bl1,
big_delta_wl2.ravel(),
big_delta_bl2.reshape(big_delta_bl2.size)])
