Abstract: | This Letter discusses the application of gradient-based methods to train a single layer perceptron subject to the constraint that the saturation degree of the sigmoid activation function (measured as its maximum slope in the sample space) is fixed to a given value. From a theoretical standpoint, we show that, if the training set is not linearly separable, the minimization of an L
p
error norm provides an approximation to the minimum error classifier, provided that the perceptron is highly saturated. Moreover, if data are linearly separable, the perceptron approximates the maximum margin classifier |
