the idea of dropping LibLinear for Logisitic Regression has been around for some time now. If we manage to have a least the same performance, supporting both L1 or L1+L2 regularization, without penalizing the intercept ... it would be great. @mblondel any thought wrt to lightning ? Alex

I can say that pylearn2 does NOT (in the main branch, at least) have an implementation of DropConnect - only dropout as Nick mentioned. A tutorial on using DropConnect is here: http://fastml.com/regularizing-neural-networks-with-dropout-and-with-dropconnect/ Kyle On Wed, Feb 5, 2014 at 1:32 PM,

A quick comment about scaling. The correct way to scale your data is to use your training set to calculate the mean and standard deviation, and then use the mean and standard deviation of the training set to scale both the training and the test set. If you use the full dataset (training+test) to
