Product of experts (PoE) is a machine learning technique. It models a probability distribution by combining the output from several simpler distributions.
It was proposed by Geoffrey Hinton in 1999, [ 1 ] along with an algorithm for training the parameters of such a system.
The core idea is to combine several probabil... | https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Product_of_experts |
