This post will mainly analysis the perceptron alrorithm introcuded in the book Python Machine Leerning, whose github address is here. Actually, I will pay much attention to the code analysis step by step, not the theoretical introduction, which is easy to comprehend.

The perceptron algorithm can be summarized by the following steps:

  1. Initialize the weights to 0 or a small random numbers.
  2. For each training sample $x^{(i)}$ perform the following steps:
    1. Compute the output value $\hat{y}$.
    2. Update the weights.

感知器算法步骤大致如下:

  1. 将权重初始化为 0 或一个很小的随机数。
  2. 对于每个训练样本 $x^{(i)}$ 执行下列操作:
    1. 计算输出值 $\hat{y}$ 。
    2. 更新权重。

这里的输出值, 就是由我们预先定义的单位阶跃函数 (unit step function) 所预测得出的类别标签。权重向量 $\mathbf{w}$ 中的每一个权重 $w_j$ 的更新公式为:

\begin{equation} w_j := w_j + \Delta w_j \end{equation}

$\Delta w_j$ 被用来更新权重 $w_j$ , 其计算公式如下:

\begin{equation} \Delta w_j = \eta \left(y^{(i)} - \hat{y}^{(i)}\right)x_j^{(i)} \end{equation}
