Restricted Boltzmann Machines, or RBMs, are two-layer generative neural networks that learn a probability distribution over the inputs. They are a special class of Boltzmann Machine in that they have a restricted number of connections between visible and hidden units. Every node in the visible layer is connected to every node in the hidden layer, but no nodes in the same group are connected. RBMs are usually trained using the contrastive divergence learning procedure.

Papers per year the archive tags with this method, by the paper's archive date (140 dated). Bars are counts, not a trend claim.

Components: the archive holds no method-to-method composition, so PwC's Components table cannot be rebuilt; the Papers list carries no Results column for the same reason (the archive does not join its leaderboard rows to method tags).
