The parameters

The network parameters, to be optimized/learned:

  1. \boldsymbol{a} represents the visible bias, a vector of same length M as \boldsymbol{x} .
  2. \boldsymbol{b} represents the hidden bias, a vector of same length N as \boldsymbol{h} .
  3. \boldsymbol{W} represents the interaction weights, a matrix of size M\times N .

Note that we have specified the lengths of bm{x} and \boldsymbol{h} . These lengths define the number of visible and hidden units, respectively.
