Local sparsity
Penguin learning project
The project uses 342 complete Palmer penguin records: 240 training-pool and 102 held-out rows. The selected training rows determine feature scaling and model parameters. Source CSV
This project trains weights with softmax, unlike the homepage lab, which uses nearest species averages. Same penguin measurements; different classification methods. Predictions can differ.
Frames and sparse signals · Encode or reconstruct signals with frames and dictionaries.
The project scales bill and flipper measurements using training-row means and scales; its feature vector has two entries.
Consider this concept alongside the project; its source assumptions may differ. These observations do not prove a theorem.
Input: 12 × 2; Held-out evaluation: 102 · #58 · 40.6 mm, 193 mm. Known answer: Adélie; Prediction: Adélie · [≈0.7383, ≈0.2444, ≈0.01737].
Used in these source sections: 7.2 A few building blocks at a time
For each circular position count nonzero coefficients in the local window across channels, then take the largest count.
These computations organize features and sparse coefficients.

- Positive integer determining a window of length 2n−1.
- Number of nonzero entries.
- Number of coefficient channels.
Source formula example
This source example uses its own inputs and assumptions. Editing it does not change the project.
Edit a value or the code, then run the example. This is a finite demonstration, not a proof of the paper’s theorem.

Result
Technical statement
The example uses n = 2, so the local window has 2n − 1 = 3 positions. The maximum is taken over every position in this finite group.
