我正在训练自己学习神经网络。有一个功能我无法让我的神经网络学习：f(x) = max(x_1, x_2). 这似乎是一个非常简单的函数，有 2 个输入和 1 个输入，但是一个 3 层神经网络训练了超过 2000 个 epoch 的一千个样本，却完全错误。我正在使用deeplearning4j.

是否有任何理由为什么对于神经网络来说 max 函数很难学习，或者我只是把它调错了？

只是想指出：如果你使用relu而不是tanh实际上有一个确切的解决方案，我猜如果你将网络缩小到完全相同的大小（1 个隐藏层和 3 个节点），你总是会得到这些权重（节点的模块排列和权重的缩放（第一层按 gamma 缩放，第二层按 1/gamma 缩放））：

max(a,b) = ((1, 1, -1)) * relu( ((1,-1), (0,1), (0,-1)) * ((a,b)) )

哪里*是矩阵乘法。

该等式将以下人类可读版本转换为 NN 语言：

max(a,b) = relu(a-b) + b = relu(a-b) + relu(b) - relu(-b)

我没有实际测试过它，我的观点是，理论上网络应该很容易学习这个功能。

编辑：我刚刚对此进行了测试，结果与我预期的一样：

[[-1.0714666e+00 -7.9943770e-01  9.0549403e-01]
 [ 1.0714666e+00 -7.7552663e-08  2.6146751e-08]]

和

[[ 0.93330014]
 [-1.250879  ]
 [ 1.1043695 ]]

其中对应的第一层和第二层。转置第二个并与第一组权重相乘，最终得到一个标准化版本，可以很容易地与我的理论结果进行比较：

[[-9.9999988e-01  9.9999988e-01  1.0000000e+00]
 [ 9.9999988e-01  9.7009000e-08  2.8875675e-08]]

至少，如果您将 x1 和 x2 限制在一个区间内，例如在 [0,3] 之间，这并不难。以 deeplearning4j 示例中的“RegressionSum”示例为例，我很快将其重写为学习 max 而不是 sum，它工作得很好，给了我这样的结果：

Max(0.6815540048808918,0.3112081053899819) = 0.64
Max(2.0073597506364407,1.93796211086664) = 2.09
Max(1.1792029272560556,2.5514324329058233) = 2.58
Max(2.489185375059013,0.0818746888836388) = 2.46
Max(2.658169689797984,1.419135581889197) = 2.66
Max(2.855509810112818,2.9661811672685086) = 2.98
Max(2.774757710538552,1.3988513143140069) = 2.79
Max(1.5852295273047565,1.1228662895771744) = 1.56
Max(0.8403435207065576,2.5595015474951195) = 2.60
Max(0.06913178775631723,2.61883825802004) = 2.54

下面是我对 RegressionSum 示例的修改版本，它最初来自 Anwar 3/15/16：

    public static final int seed = 12345;
    //Number of iterations per minibatch
    public static final int iterations = 1;
    //Number of epochs (full passes of the data)
    public static final int nEpochs = 200;
    //Number of data points
    public static final int nSamples = 10000;
    //Batch size: i.e., each epoch has nSamples/batchSize parameter updates
    public static final int batchSize = 100;
    //Network learning rate
    public static final double learningRate = 0.01;
    // The range of the sample data, data in range (0-1 is sensitive for NN, you can try other ranges and see how it effects the results
    // also try changing the range along with changing the activation function
    public static int MIN_RANGE = 0;
    public static int MAX_RANGE = 3;

    public static final Random rng = new Random(seed);

    public static void main(String[] args){

        //Generate the training data
        DataSetIterator iterator = getTrainingData(batchSize,rng);

        //Create the network
        int numInput = 2;
        int numOutputs = 1;

        MultiLayerNetwork net = new MultiLayerNetwork(new NeuralNetConfiguration.Builder()

                        .nIn(nHidden).nOut(numOutputs).build())
                .pretrain(false).backprop(true).build()
        );
        net.init();
        net.setListeners(new ScoreIterationListener(1));


        //Train the network on the full data set, and evaluate in periodically
        for( int i=0; i<nEpochs; i++ ){
            iterator.reset();
            net.fit(iterator);
        }

        // Test the max of some numbers (Try different numbers here)
        Random rand = new Random();
        for (int i= 0; i< 10; i++) {
            double d1 = MIN_RANGE + (MAX_RANGE - MIN_RANGE) * rand.nextDouble();
            double d2 =  MIN_RANGE + (MAX_RANGE - MIN_RANGE) * rand.nextDouble();

            INDArray out = net.output(input, false);
            System.out.println("Max(" + d1 + "," + d2 + ") = " + out);
        }

    }

    private static DataSetIterator getTrainingData(int batchSize, Random rand){
        double [] max = new double[nSamples];
        double [] input1 = new double[nSamples];
        double [] input2 = new double[nSamples];
        for (int i= 0; i< nSamples; i++) {
            input1[i] = MIN_RANGE + (MAX_RANGE - MIN_RANGE) * rand.nextDouble();
            input2[i] =  MIN_RANGE + (MAX_RANGE - MIN_RANGE) * rand.nextDouble();
            max[i] = Math.max(input1[i], input2[i]);
        }
        INDArray inputNDArray1 = Nd4j.create(input1, new int[]{nSamples,1});
        INDArray inputNDArray2 = Nd4j.create(input2, new int[]{nSamples,1});
        INDArray inputNDArray = Nd4j.hstack(inputNDArray1,inputNDArray2);
        INDArray outPut = Nd4j.create(max, new int[]{nSamples, 1});
        DataSet dataSet = new DataSet(inputNDArray, outPut);
        List<DataSet> listDs = dataSet.asList();
        Collections.shuffle(listDs,rng);
        return new ListDataSetIterator(listDs,batchSize);

    }
