Definition

A function [math]f:\{-1,1\}^{2k} \to \{-1,1\}[/math] is called an inner product function if it is equal to the sign of the inner product of the first half of the input and the second half. More formally,

[math]f(x_1,\ldots,x_k, y_1,\ldots,y_k) = (-1)^{\boldsymbol{x} \cdot \boldsymbol{y}}. [/math]


Properties

  • TODO: Fourier representation
  • The inner product function requires either exponential weights or an exponential number of nodes to be represented with a restricted Boltzmann machine. [1]
