It is typically used only if you have a large labeled training set; in this setting, fine-tuning can significantly improve the performance of your classifier. However, if you have a large unlabeled dataset (for unsupervised feature learning/pre-training) and only a relatively small labeled training set, then fine-tuning is significantly less likely to help.
相当于用多个autoencoder去捕获输入集的特征。第一个autoencoder捕获了数据集的特征后,得到特征matrix1(hidden layer的权重).然后将特征matrix1与输入集feedForward处理后的activation作为输入去捕获更高等级的特征matrix2(hidden layer的权重).然后不断重复,再讲最后得到的特征activation作为输入集输入到softmax classifier(或者其他分类器)中训练。(注意并非将训练完后得到的特征matrix直接传给下一个autoencoder,而是将输入集与此输入集同级的特征matrix用feedForward方法得到的activation传入下一个autoencoder,即将输出传给下一个autoencode)。
然后整个网络训练完之后,将各个步骤得到的特征matrix与分类器的参数合成新的网络。
其实就是将前面分步训练得到的hidden layer的Weight和softmax refression的softmaxTheta作为合成的神经网络的初始参数,然后运用神经网络的前馈和反向算法对初始参数进行微调(注意合成的网络是必须加上分类器的,不然也无法对神经网络的参数进行反向传播和微调(finetuning),此以softmax regression 为例)。具体可参考softmaxCost.m,sparseAutoencoderCost.m。

% Instructions
% ------------
%
% This file contains code that helps you get started on the
% sstacked autoencoder exercise. You will need to complete code in

% For the purpose of completing the assignment, you do not need to
% change the code in this file.

% allow your sparse autoencoder to get good filters; you do not need to
% change the parameters below.
inputSize = 28 * 28;
numClasses = 10;
hiddenSizeL1 = 200; % Layer 1 Hidden Size
hiddenSizeL2 = 200; % Layer 2 Hidden Size
sparsityParam = 0.1; % desired average activation of the hidden units.
% (This was denoted by the Greek alphabet rho, which looks like a lower-case "p",
% in the lecture notes).
lambda = 3e-3; % weight decay parameter
beta = 3; % weight of sparsity penalty term
%%======================================================================
