Dropout Regularization in Deep Neural Networks

The deep neural network (DNN) is a very powerful neural work with multiple hidden layers and is able to capture the highly complex relationship between the response and predictors. However, it is prone to the over-fitting due to a large number of parameters that makes the regularization crucial for DNNs. In the paper (https://www.cs.toronto.edu/~hinton/absps/JMLRdropout.pdf), an …
