Question 11

+4 marksNumerical answer

Consider an encoder-decoder pair used for dimensionality reduction, where the encoder function is denoted as f(x1,x2,x3)=(x1+x2−x3,x1+x3)f(x_1, x_2, x_3) = (x_1 + x_2 - x_3, x_1 + x_3) and the decoder function is denoted as g(u)=(u1,u2,u1+u2)g(u) = (u_1, u_2, u_1 + u_2)

Compute the reconstruction error (R(f,g)=1n∑i=1n∥Xi−g(f(Xi))∥2)\left(R(f, g) = \dfrac{1}{n} \sum\limits_{i=1}^{n} \|X_i - g(f(X_i))\|^2\right) for the following dataset:

X1=[1,2,3],    X2=[0,2,2],    X3=[1,0,−1]X_1 = [1, 2, 3], \;\; X_2 = [0, 2, 2], \;\; X_3 = [1, 0, -1]

Enter the answer correct to two decimal places.
